It's online Take care of your money, a new financial education portal that brings citizens closer to the issues of conscious management of money and savings thanks to easy-to-consult contents and simple, direct language.
The project, carried out by the Foundation for Financial Education in collaboration with numerous consumer associations, seeks to respond to the need to disseminate financial education, repeatedly requested by institutions and legislators, to provide tools of knowledge, and therefore of protection, to small savers and in general to citizens who have to face choices related to the management of their money.
In the portal, which will grow in the coming months, thanks to the collaboration with academic partners, such as Adeimf (Association of Professors of Economics of Financial Intermediaries) and private partners, such as the Global Thinking Foundation, you can find useful suggestions on the conscious management of your money.
The various sections are dedicated to savings, banking services, payment cards, credit, mortgages and the relationship between the bank and customers, with particular attention to families, who can benefit significantly from proper management of the family budget , but also to younger people, with advice and information on electronic money and new tools for efficient pocket money management.
Among the features of the portal, the possibility of accessing information by stage of life (young people, families, the elderly) and therefore finding useful indications with respect to the real needs linked to age.
Young people, for example, are offered the topic of planning their economic future through information on supplementary pensions. In this section, visitors will find not only information on financial products designed for this need, but also informative material on the subject created by the Foundation to make the Italian pension scenario easier to understand.
Furthermore, the portal includes a section dedicated to people who are victims of usury, in which the problem of debt is addressed, with suggestions on how to deal with situations of over-indebtedness and how to prevent recourse to usurious loans.
Finally, a video section will soon be available, in which numerous contents of the portal will also be usable through videos which, in a rapid, intuitive and entertaining way, will explain and tell anecdotes and the basic rules of acting in an economic sense.
