Financourse has unveiled a global initiative to tackle financial illiteracy through research-based, practical learning programs. Covering financial stability, wealth management, and digital finance, the courses blend behavioral insights with real-world applications. By localizing content and focusing on underserved groups, Financourse aims to boost global financial resilience and economic inclusion.
PRAGUE, Oct. 25, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Financial illiteracy is often called the "silent crisis" of the 21st century. With only 33% of adults worldwide considered financially literate (World Bank, 2024), the consequences are staggering: rising personal debt, under-preparedness for retirement, and vulnerability to economic shocks. Recognizing the urgency, Financourse has launched a comprehensive framework of structured, research-based learning programs aimed at equipping individuals with the financial skills needed to thrive in a rapidly evolving global economy.
Evidence-Based Learning for Real-World Application
Financourse's programs are designed around the latest studies in behavioral finance, digital banking adoption, and intergenerational wealth management. The courses integrate three pillars:
- Foundations of Financial Stability: personal budgeting, inflation management, credit building, and debt control.
- Wealth-Building and Risk Management: diversified investing, retirement planning, sustainable finance, and insurance strategies.
- The Digital Finance Frontier: blockchain basics, central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), AI-driven investment tools, and regulatory compliance.
Unlike conventional finance curricula, each module ties concepts directly to everyday decision-making, reinforced by case studies, scenario-based exercises, and adaptive assessments.
Global Relevance with Local Context
A critical challenge in financial education lies in its one-size-fits-all delivery. Financourse addresses this by adapting content for regional contexts.
This global-yet-local approach ensures learners can apply financial principles to their immediate environments.
Social Impact Beyond the Individual
Financourse's initiative is not just about individual learners; it has macroeconomic implications. According to OECD research, a 10% increase in financial literacy levels can lead to a 0.4% rise in GDP over time, as financially literate populations save more, borrow responsibly, and invest productively. Financourse is working to scale access to financial knowledge and close the literacy gap that disproportionately affects women, youth, and low-income groups.
A Mission Rooted in Empowerment
"Financial literacy is not just about managing money — it's about building resilience in uncertain times," said Dominik Havel of Financourse. "Our framework goes beyond theory. It's about preparing individuals for practical realities: rising interest rates, digital banking adoption, and even the psychological aspects of money management."
