ESAs Thematic Report on national financial education initiatives on digitalization, with a focus on cybersecurity, scams and fraud

The European Supervisory Authorities have issued a thematic report on the implementation across the EU of national financial education initiatives on digitalization, with a focus on cybersecurity, scams and fraud. The report provides meaningful insights for NCAs and other public entities on good practices when designing and implementing financial education initiatives, thereby sharing experiences of other NCAs in the EU, without prescribing a specific approach.

This report is based on an analysis of the Joint ESA’s thematic repository of 127 national financial education initiatives on digitalization with a focus on cybersecurity, scams and fraud, that was published on 31 January 2022.2 It presents an overview of the subject matters, objectives, format, type of output, promotional channels, target group and organizational aspects of the financial education initiatives reported in the thematic repository. It also draws on insights from a joint ESAs high-level conference on financial education and literacy that was held on 1-2 February 2022 and a workshop with NCAs in September 2022.
