FINCO Good SENS

Good SENS (Social Enterprise Network for Schools) is FINCO’s flagship financial literacy programme developed to address low financial literacy skills amongst primary school students. Supported by teachers and financial industry volunteers, students participating in this programme have the chance to learn more about financial concepts such as spending, saving and budgeting, and the opportunity to have fun while learning valuable skills such as leadership, decision making and teamwork as they run their own social enterprise!

FINCO is proud of the global recognition that Good SENS has received.
