The United Nations Capital Development Fund (UNCDF) acknowledged Fiji’s success in advancing financial inclusion and implementing financial literacy education programmes in a meeting Thursday between Attorney General and Minister for Finance Hon. Aiyaz Sayed-Khaiyum, UNCDF Executive Secretary Ms. Judith Karl and UNCDF Director of Inclusive Finance Practice Area Mr. Henrei Dommel.
“Our focus is on furthering financial inclusion so that all Fijians can become more integrated in our economy and see the benefits of our unprecedented economic growth. Financial literacy is also a priority for our Government – and it starts with education. By teaching financial literacy in our schools, we will enable Fijians to make thoughtful and informed decisions when managing their finances,” said the AG.
