Indian Banks Association is collaborating with Child and Yough Finance Internation (CYFI) to work out an industry-wide program whereby every bank branch will adopt a school in their vicinity, offer accounts facilities and impart financial education to the students. CYFI, an organization registered in Amsterdam and supported by United Nations, leads the world’s largest movement dedicated to enhancing the financial capabilities of children and youth. Launched in April 2012, the movement has already spread over 100 countries and has reached more than 18 million children. Every Year, the CYFI celebrates Global Money Week in March, which is a worldwide celebration to empower the next generation to be confident, responsible and skilled economic citizens. The Global Money Week 2015 is scheduled from 9 to 17 March 2015.
