Financial education: Bper Banca adheres to the Global Thinking Foundation's "Women squared" project

B for Bank adheres to the project "Women squared: Financial and Social Security Planning", weblog Global Thinking Foundation, the non-profit foundation led by Claudia Segre born in 2016 to spread financial and digital education with the aim of combating economic violence and promoting social inclusion projects for the weakest groups.

“Joining the GLT 'Women Squared' training course is in all respects one of the initiatives put in place to promote gender equality and the empowerment of women and girls, as well as promoting the prevention of economic violence – he said Flavia Mazzarella, president of Bper Banca -. In fact, this project can actually help women to become more aware of their skills in the economic and financial fields and learn methods and techniques of asset, insurance and welfare management, thus helping them to improve attitudes and behaviours”.

“Women Squared”: what it is about

"Women Squared” is a training course aimed at women with the aim of developing economic, insurance and social security skills in order to be able to guide economic and financial choices in an aware, independent and sustainable way. 6 digital lessons scheduled to take place between October and November 2022, in which the concepts of risk, return and diversification will be examined through the description of the main financial instruments. Furthermore, in-depth studies on the topics of the gender gap in financial education to prevent economic violence and in the management of insurance risks and pension planning.

For Claudia Segre, president of the Global Thinking Foundation, this training course “is aimed at a perspective of change and full financial inclusion of women. Efforts must be made to build a new and better economic scenario in which everyone can participate fully and equally. In an ever-changing world, where digitization has become the engine of all other forces, financial education must go hand in hand with digital education.”
