“We have to start treating financial education as a national development priority.” – Kennedy Bungane, CEO, African Bank, South Africa
The capital formation ability of individuals and households determines the future outcomes of an economy. Financial literacy is foundational to national progress, equipping individuals to save, invest, plan and protect their wealth.
Making financial education a core priority ensures that the benefits of capital markets are understood and accessible. Policymakers can support this by incorporating long-term literacy programs into basic learning materials and financial products.
By prioritising financial education, we can create a more resilient and economically active population, driving national development and progress.
