Young Leaders Program: Online Seminar on Personal Finance

Introduction

Personal financial management is a subject matter that is often considered to be of minor importance in school curricula. We think this is wrong. Surprises abound in life regarding your financial wellbeing. Unexpected car problems or medical bills may occur at any given time, usually when it is most inconvenient. Tuition fees can be a long-term financial burden. A comfortable retirement requires sound financial planning, preferably starting as soon as you start your professional career.

When you learn how to start managing your money properly, you’ll get a better understanding of where and how you are spending it. This can help you keep within your budget and increase your savings, important stepping-stones to achieve your financial goals and independence.

FNF is supporting young students between the ages of 15 and 22 with a basic knowledge about personal finance. We’d like to give you the opportunity to learn from experts in the field, discuss and connect with and learn from peers from all over Asia.

Consumption vs investment
The need for investment
Main types of investments
What are assets?
