The National Bank of the Kyrgyz Republic has launched the “World Savings Day” campaign in Kyrgyzstan, coordinating a nationwide programme designed to raise financial literacy, foster a savings culture and encourage more rational use of personal financial resources. The campaign, run in Kyrgyzstan since 2015, is supported by state bodies, financial institutions, the Deposit Protection Agency of the Kyrgyz Republic and other participants. Events will take place in Bishkek and the regions from 27 to 31 October with commercial banks, insurance companies and educational institutions, including open lessons, lectures, interactive games, excursions, open days, competitions and quizzes covering the importance of saving and different ways to preserve and grow existing savings, with further information published on the FinSabat information and education portal.
