Nabiullina announced the development of infrastructure for financial literacy work

The infrastructure for financial literacy is developing in the regions of Russia. This was announced on March 12 by the head of the Central Bank (CBR), Elvira Nabiullina, at the summing up ceremony of the Capital of Financial Culture competition at the Rossiya National Center.

12 regions of Russia reached the final of the competition, and the Nizhny Novgorod Region and the Krasnoyarsk Territory were recognized as capitals of financial culture. According to the head of the Central Bank, it turned out to be extremely difficult to choose the winner of the competition, as there were many interesting ideas and developments in financial education.

"When I watched the presentation and discussed it with my colleagues, I made three conclusions for myself. The first is that the regions already have a good infrastructure for financial literacy. <...> The second, related to the first, is that many projects, I am sure, will be implemented, even if the region does not receive the status of capital of financial culture. And thirdly, we see that the projects are very different and really meet people's needs. <...> There are quests, there are funiculars of financial literacy," Nabiullina said.

She added that the contestants had made a great contribution to the financial culture. And thanks to this, they will help people navigate the complex world of finance and use its opportunities wisely.
