This article explores the structural and semantic characteristics of metaphorical terms in the financial and economic terminology system, emphasizing their role in interdisciplinary education and cognitive development. Through an analysis of 300 metaphorical lexical units, the study identifies key patterns in word formation, including the predominance of multi-word expressions (80% of the corpus) and the frequent use of core "nesting centers" such as "business," "loan," and "stock." The research highlights how metaphor serves as a cognitive tool for understanding complex economic concepts, facilitating knowledge retention through vivid, associative imagery. Three primary features of metaphorical terms are identified: structural diversity, the existence of multiple metaphors for similar phenomena with subtle pragmatic differences, and the presence of lexical anchors tied to economic activities. The article also categorizes metaphorical mappings across conceptual domains, such as evaluative judgments and temporal relations, which contribute to a deeper comprehension of abstract financial processes. These insights inform the development of educational methodologies that enhance the acquisition and productive use of metaphorical economic terminology, fostering students' linguistic guesswork, prediction skills, and professional competencies in a globalized economic environment.
