Financial Education and Fintech
The revolution in the financial sector with Fintech, the union of finance and technology, has radically changed the relationship humans have with the economy and money.
While it has made access to financial services more democratic by making them more affordable, it has also highlighted the need to be well educated on the subject in order to be able to understand a complex system and act within it consciously.
The key role of financial education in Fintech
Before the digital revolution, personal and corporate financial management was mainly delegated to the bank or a financial expert. Today, however, the use of a financial intermediary only occurs as a specific choice of the individual, not due to a lack of information and knowledge.
Access to information related to finance is no longer limited to experts, but has been extended to the population at large, as long as one has the ability to browse online. Financial management apps, online trading platforms, blockchain, cryptocurrencies, digital wallets and so on, are accessible to anyone with an internet connection.
This democratization of the financial sector has generated more interest and participation, but it has also highlighted the increasing need for financial education because in order to achieve true economic prosperity, people need to be familiar with financial concepts and dynamics, thus being aware of their actions, risks and opportunities.
The integration of fintech and financial education
The combination of technology and education is essential to enable people to make informed and responsible financial decisions. However, it is also important to face the challenges related to security and privacy, different accessibility caused by the technology gap, and the comprehensibility of fintech solutions for possible technical complexities.
Therefore, investing in financial education through fintech is an important step towards a society where everyone can successfully manage their finances and access the financial opportunities that technology has to offer.
This approach should be seen by fintech companies as a strategic investment because financial education improves individual economic wellbeing and thus becomes an important growth driver for the sector.
