Launched in April 2012 as the Citi Foundation-SMU Financial Literacy Program for Young Adults, the SMU Financial Literacy, Inclusion, and Technology (SMU FinLIT) Programme is Singapore's first structured initiative designed to provide financial literacy education to young adults.
Through a combination of workshops, lectures, coursework, and interactive game-based carnivals, the programme aims to equip young adults with essential personal finance knowledge and skills relevant to their life stage. This initiative offers a solid foundation for managing money and gives them a financial head start in their lives. Find out more here.
