Short description of the project: the development of the economy depends not only on the effective implementation of financial technologies but also on the ability of people to use them. Therefore, the improvement of financial literacy along with the financial education and protection of the consumers of financial services has been recognized by the European Commission as an important task of social development. In the conditions of the European integration, the emergence of the wide range of the latest financial products and services on the financial market of Ukraine requires from its citizens an active behavior during their interaction with financial institutions. It means a high level of financial literacy and the ability of the consumers of financial services to use the available information in the decision- making process. Considering the goal set by the European Commission in relation to financial literacy, that is ‘developing the ability of customers and owners of small businesses to understand the essence of financial products and make qualified informed decisions’, the activities of the European studies on financial education contribute to the transfer of the European knowledge and experience of competent financial behavior to different categories of people - students, pupils, secondary school teachers, businessmen. To this end, the project envisages organizing and conducting various educational and promotional activities. For information and communication support of the project and ensuring efficient feedback, it is planned to set up a call-center and a web-site of the European studies of financial education with all the necessary teaching, information, and practical materials. The expected results of the project include the collaboration of all educational institutions, coordination of the activity of scientists and educators to promote the idea of financial literacy in society, and improvement of financial awareness.
