Católica Porto Business School organises "My Financial Future" event in partnership with Banco de Portugal and CFA Society Portugal

Wednesday, October 16, 2024 - 17:04

Last week, Católica Porto Business School hosted the event "My Financial Future", in partnership with Banco de Portugal and CFA Society Portugal, focused on helping young people acquire knowledge of personal finance. 

Despite being the most digitally literate generation, one in two young people still don't understand concepts such as the Euribor rate. That's why this event was designed for university students at Católica Porto Business School and other faculties of Universidade Católica Portuguesa in Porto, but open to anyone interested, with the aim of promoting a more secure and informed financial future. 

The session was opened by Francisca Guedes de Oliveira, a member of the Board of Directors of Banco de Portugal and a lecturer at CPBS, the director of Católica Porto Business School, João Pinto, and the CEO of the CFA Society Portugal, Marcos Soares Ribeiro. 

The programme continued with talks on "Why save and how to invest", by Vítor Ribeiro, a member of the CFA Society Portugal, and "Credit and the impact on the budget" and "Safe use of digital financial services", by Luís Vaz, from the Banco de Portugal. Participants also had the opportunity to listen to a speech by João Pinto on the subject of sustainable finance. 

The session ended with a round table that allowed for an exchange of questions and answers between the speakers and the participants. 

The event also featured the presentation of the "My Financial Future" competition, an initiative of Banco de Portugal and the CFA Society Portugal, which challenges young people to propose innovative solutions in areas such as family budgets, savings and credit.
