In eight years, Matolcsy's foundations provided more than 1 billion forints in support to the MCC.

Over eight years, the Pallas Athéné Foundations provided 1.1 billion HUF to the Mathias Corvinus Collegium (MCC), a politically affiliated elite training institution. The funding, primarily from the Hungarian National Bank, was allocated for various educational initiatives, though details on expenditures remain scarce. The PADME foundation, which oversees these funds, has faced scrutiny for its financial practices and investments. Despite the significant amount, it represents a small fraction of MCC's overall funding, which has included various educational programs and international study opportunities for students. The MCC's financial reports have shown inconsistencies in how these funds were reported, raising questions about transparency and accountability.
