Home | National Financial Literacy Strategy. Why financial literacy matters In today's fast-paced consumer society, financial literacy is an essential everyday life skill. It means being able to understand and negotiate the financial landscape, manage money and financial risk effectively and avoid financial pitfalls. Improving financial literacy can benefit anyone, regardless of age, income or background. It helps you make informed financial choices, day-to-day and throughout your life. The National Financial Literacy Strategy was developed in 2011 to provide a national direction for this priority area. The Strategy recognises that improving financial literacy is a long-term journey that requires a multi-faceted and nationally co-ordinated approach, with sustained action by multiple stakeholders.
