The Financial Superintendence of Colombia has announced that the national campaign Me informo y cuido mi dinero will hold two public training sessions in Cartagena on July 16 and 17. Led jointly with the Superintendence of Companies and the Superintendence of Industry and Commerce, the initiative is aimed at helping citizens identify and avoid illegal money-raising schemes, false credit offers and other deceptive financial proposals that could put their funds at risk. The Cartagena program starts on July 16 from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. at the Mercado de Santa Rita in the Torices neighborhood, with an open session for merchants and the general public on financial self-protection in daily life. A second open session will take place on July 17 from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. at the auditorium of the Cartagena District Ombudsman's Office. That session will cover responsible money management, the need to verify the legality of financial offers, and steps people can take to avoid fraud linked to purported investment or credit opportunities. The campaign forms part of a broader national outreach effort that continues to travel across different regions of Colombia to promote informed financial decisions and provide practical tools for spotting warning signs and protecting personal resources.
