Gyeonggi-do to Conduct 'Visiting Financial Education' Again This Year

Gyeonggi-do's 'Visiting Financial Education' Information Poster

Gyeonggi Province is conducting a "Visiting Financial Education" program in collaboration with the Korea Inclusive Finance Agency and the Credit Counseling & Recovery Service.

The Visiting Financial Education program is a project where a professional instructor visits groups of 20 or more, such as financially vulnerable groups or social welfare facilities, upon request to provide practical financial education needed in daily life.

The curriculum includes tailored courses reflecting the characteristics of various learners, from youth to the elderly, covering topics such as rational consumption and saving, debt management, credit management, and prevention of financial fraud. It is expected to be effective in preventing various financial accident damages.

Groups wishing to receive education can apply through the websites of the desired educational institutions (Korea Inclusive Finance Agency, Credit Counseling & Recovery Service).

Heo Seung-beom, Director of the Welfare Bureau of Gyeonggi Province, stated, "It is a public responsibility to deliver necessary financial knowledge and prevent damage for financially vulnerable groups who find it difficult to adapt to the recent high-interest rate environment and rapidly changing financial landscape. We will continue to strive to promote effective education and publicity through active communication with partner organizations."
