National Standards for Financial Literacy

The National Standards for Financial Literacy are guidelines developed to improve financial education across the United States. They outline essential knowledge and skills individuals should acquire at different stages of life, focusing on topics like budgeting, saving, investing, and understanding credit. These standards aim to equip people with the tools needed to make informed financial decisions, manage money effectively, and achieve financial stability. By promoting financial literacy, the standards seek to empower individuals and foster a financially informed society, ultimately helping to reduce economic disparities and enhance overall well-being.
