BBVA to Support Seven International Financial Education Projects
BBVA’s Center for Financial Education and Capability’s grant program has selected the financial education research projects that will receive financing this year. One of the novelties of this edition is that seven grants will be given this year, instead of five like in previous years. A total of 40 projects from 23 countries were presented.
The amount of the grant will also be distributed differently this year with three awards of EUR 10,000 each and four awards of EUR 5,000. This distribution of funds will support the innovative research projects developed by local teams to encourage the researchers leading the projects to acquire skills. BBVA’s support will serve to launch their research and increase their local impact.
