Finanzmarktaufsicht und WU Wien bringen Finanzinformationen in den Schulunterricht: „Finanzbildung ist Lebensbildung“
The FMA and the Competence Centre for Financial Education of WU Wien presented their joint initiative to bring financial topics into school lessons at the 3rd Financial Education Breakfast, with a focus on protection against investment fraud. The press release describes teaching materials, an Instagram video format and about 12,000 pupils reached in three years, and is aimed at the general public and schools rather than supervised entities.
