AEB launches the fourth edition of its annual program “Your Finances, Your Future”, which aims to instill knowledge in young people so they can manage their money and develop healthy financial habits. Students from a hundred secondary schools across Spain will receive training on basic personal finance concepts: how to create a personal budget, what to consider when making a purchasing decision, and what responsible consumption entails.
As a new feature, this fourth edition introduces a session on digital banking and cybersecurity to make students aware of how new technologies influence our lives and what precautions need to be taken. The class will focus on different types of digital fraud and how to prevent them.
Furthermore, students participating in “Your Finances, Your Future” this year will have the opportunity to take part in the national final of the financial education competition via the ‘Kahoot!’ online platform, organized by the AEB together with other European banking associations belonging to the European Banking Federation. The Spanish final of this competition will be held on April 10 and 11, and the winners will represent Spain in the European final to be held in May with students from 30 other European countries.
