The second edition of the “Dă sens banilor” Financial Education Camp, organised by the National Bank of Moldova and the Independent Think Tank “Expert-Grup” on 9-13 August 2021, brought together hundreds of participants from over 80 localities in the Republic of Moldova. The five-day event was held online, giving people of different ages, occupations and places of residence equal chances to take part.

Participants were pupils, students and young employees aged 16 to 30. Over five days, eight trainers from the National Bank of Moldova and Expert-Grup taught them about the national financial system, investment and lending instruments, cashless payments and online commerce, to help them manage personal and family budgets better.

On the last day, participants took a virtual tour of the National Bank and a real-time quiz. Ten of the more than one hundred participants scored the maximum and received sets of mint coins and commemorative coins. Everyone who attended at least four of the five sessions will receive a certificate signed by Governor Octavian Armașu and Adrian Lupușor, Executive Director of Expert-Grup. The camp is part of the “Dă sens banilor” project, launched in 2019 to help young people understand key financial concepts and products and make sound decisions about their income.
