Ukraine National Commission on Securities and Stock Market updates the 2030 financial literacy strategy roadmap and revises deadlines for almost a third of measures

Ukraine’s National Commission on Securities and Stock Market (NSSMC) and other public bodies approved amendments to the roadmap for implementing the National Strategy for the Development of Financial Literacy until 2030, revising timelines, updating the scope of work and reallocating responsibilities across institutions. The update involved the NSSMC, the National Bank of Ukraine, the Ministry of Education, the Deposit Guarantee Fund, the Ministry of Economy, the Ministry of Digital Transformation and the State Institution “Entrepreneurship and Export Development Office”. The revision of deadlines for almost a third of the roadmap measures reflects resource constraints identified after the first year of implementation, including reduced funding for educational initiatives as donor priorities shifted. The amended roadmap also expands tasks for a number of activities based on 2024 implementation experience to better target educational products and broaden coverage, including entrepreneurs. The largest set of changes was made under strategic goal No. 1, “Quality basic financial education”, including two new measures to run school competitions: the national selection for the European Money Quiz (for children aged 13–15) and a business-idea competition for 9th grade students taking the “Entrepreneurship and Financial Literacy” course. Following the first year of implementation, 42 of 80 roadmap measures (53%) were implemented and 5 activities (6%) were completed, with the remaining 33 measures (41%) scheduled to start in subsequent years. The amended roadmap was approved through regulatory acts of the participating institutions, including an NSSMC resolution dated 21 October 2025.
