November is Financial Literacy Month.
Judith Robertson, Commissioner of the Financial Consumer Agency of Canada (FCAC), will launch the 11th annual Financial Literacy Month at a virtual event on Monday, November 1 at 1:00 p.m. ET.
The event will bring together people and organizations from across the country that share a commitment to advancing financial literacy in Canada. The program will include an overview of FCAC’s renewed National Financial Literacy Strategy and feature special guests, including Bruce Sellery, CEO of Credit Canada.
Recently, Financial Literacy Month has taken on even greater importance because of a complex and increasingly digital financial world, and the financial challenges that many Canadians have faced as a result of the pandemic.
