Mexico's National Commission for the Protection and Defence of Users of Financial Services convenes a Los Pinos forum to strengthen women’s financial education

Mexico’s National Commission for the Protection and Defence of Users of Financial Services (CONDUSEF) published a communiqué on its Financial Health Forum, co-organised with the Mexican Association of Insurance Institutions (AMIS) and the Mexican Association of Pension Fund Administrators (Amafore) at the Los Pinos Cultural Complex, focused on financial education with a gender perspective. The event brought together public and private sector participants to discuss structural gaps affecting women’s economic and financial participation and to share practical tools to support informed decision-making and financial wellbeing. CONDUSEF President Oscar Rosado Jiménez highlighted the need for financial products and campaigns that better match women’s needs. AMIS pointed to its Minerva financial education initiative, which it said has reached more than 104,000 Mexican women with practical content on saving, credit, insurance and entrepreneurship; Amafore called for stronger retirement-saving habits among women, particularly entrepreneurs. Speakers also referenced the role of suitable products and a protective regulatory framework, and the forum programme included three expert roundtables (financial decisions, financing for women entrepreneurs and personal finance strategies), two practical workshops on budgeting and financial planning, and sessions on fraud prevention and financial security delivered by specialists from the National Guard and the Ministry of Public Security.
