Financial Literacy Month

November is Financial Literacy Month in Canada! If you haven’t heard of this campaign before, it is a national initiative aimed at helping Canadians increase their financial knowledge. This is something we firmly believe in, here at Creditaid. We believe that when people are better educated on how the credit system works, they will be able to make better and more informed decisions when it comes to their personal finances.

If you are interested in participating in Financial Literacy Month – start by picking up or downloading a copy of the 2014 “Money Matters” calendar! The calendar will feature information and valuable money-saving resources for young people, families and individuals nearing retirement, including tips on managing debt, reducing the cost and length of a mortgage, talking to children about money and recognizing personal investment scams.

To download your copy – visit the Manitoba Securities Commission online at msc.gov.mb.ca.

Did you know that the month of November is Financial Literacy Month?

This initiative is a nationwide campaign aimed at helping Canadians increase their financial knowledge so that they can make more informed decisions when it comes to their personal finances. Understanding basic financial principles and practices is an essential ingredient to every household’s financial stability.

At Creditaid, one of our highest priorities is helping families understand how the credit system works and how to manage their finances wisely. Many people fall into financial crisis without being fully aware of how they got there in the first place. We believe a clear understanding of the credit system and available financial tools can help people turn their situations around before they find themselves too far in debt. Financial management is key and we are happy to provide you with the tools and information you need to get there.

Creditaid is committed to helping Canadians and we’re here to help. With the Creditaid Budget Bootcamp, we have taken this commitment one step further. Our Budget Bootcamp will take you step by step through a comprehensive budgeting plan, aided by many of the tools we use to help our clients on a daily basis.
