TVI and Rádio Observador have been following some of the financial literacy sessions that the APB and its Member Banks are promoting in schools across the country as part of the "No Banco da Minha Escola" initiative.

In Loulé, at the EB 2,3 Eng. Duarte Pacheco School, the session was covered by TVI, which highlighted how banks are teaching young people to be aware of such important concepts as managing a budget and saving.

Throughout the school year, more than 50 employees from the APB member banks will exchange their office desks for classroom benches, to teach financial literacy to 3,800 3rd cycle and secondary school students. The aim is to empower these students with capabilities for financial planning and management in their everyday lives.

This initiative started on 30 October to mark the Financial Literacy Week, which also includes the World Savings Day celebrations.
