Financial literacy for women entrepreneurs in Seychelles
In 2014, the Government of Seychelles (GoS) adopted the Financial Sector Development Implementation Plan (FSDIP) whose purpose is to strengthen and modernize the financial sector. Of the priorities identified were the introduction of a consumer protection framework in the financial sector and a financial literacy strategy.
In response, the Central Bank of Seychelles (CBS) and the Financial Services Authority (FSA) commissioned a National Financial Literacy Baseline in 2016 and the development of the National Financial Education Strategy (NFES) in 2017. An in-depth diagnostic was undertaken during May 2017. The findings are captured in this report (see the link below) and form the basis of the NFES. Details of the institutions providing financial literacy training are provided below.
