Financial literacy is the core skillset required to understand, manage, and grow personal finances. It involves knowledge of money management, budgeting, saving strategies, debt reduction, and investment fundamentals.
Mastering financial literacy helps individuals make informed decisions about income, expenses, credit, and financial planning. It supports long-term goals such as home ownership, retirement planning, and wealth accumulation.
In an economy shaped by inflation, interest rates, and digital banking, financial education is no longer optional. It’s a life skill that empowers people to navigate economic uncertainty with confidence.
