“Financial inclusion needs to be intensified for establishing economic stability and expansion of financial literacy can play a significant role in this regard,” said BB Governor Dr Atiur Rahman while inaugurating the programme here today.

He said the first chapter of the financial literacy programme has been designed taking the requirements of people, especially school-college going students, women, poor people in rural areas and senior citizens in account. “Efforts will be there to give people who are out of banking services information and encourage them to take banking services,” he added.

The governor said under the financial literacy project, steps have been taken to carry out massive campaign through radio, TV and newspapers. Besides, there will also be an especial link in BB’s website which has been designed with features, stories and video games to help people of different ages including children learn about financial activities.
