Financial Education Month

The Committee on the Planning and Coordination of Financial Education Activities promotes throughout the month of November the “Financial Education Month”: free and high-quality initiatives and events, without commercial purposes, to increase basic knowledge on insurance, social security and management and planning of personal and family financial resources. Indispensable knowledge for serenity in the present and also for the future.

The first edition took place in 2018. There are many entities that adhere with their own initiatives: associations, institutions, companies, universities, schools, foundations, public administrations, pension funds, consumer associations, social security funds and businesses of the insurance world that present projects consistent with the guidelines defined by the Committee can use the Logo of the Month, a symbol of the quality of the activity.

The Logo of the Month is blue but can take on different colours depending on the contents of the initiative, the recipients and the promoters; in particular, it can be:

• pink if the main recipients of the initiative are women;
• green if the initiative addresses environmental sustainability issues;
• yellow if the promoter is a university or a scientific institution;
• purple if the initiative mainly deals with technological and financial innovation topics.

Moments of reflection, play, discussion and entertainment on savings management, as well as on insurance and social security topics, many of which are open to the public, take place online and throughout Italy.

The choice of November is not accidental: the month opens with the World Savings Day on October 31.

Applications can be submitted starting from the month of September according to the calendar provided for each edition.
