Abstract
The Stock Exchange of Thailand is collaborating with government and private sectors to promote financial literacy and retirement planning for elderly citizens. This initiative aims to improve quality of life in an aging society.
Empowering Elderly with Financial Knowledge
The Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET), along with government and private sector partners, is spearheading the “From Aged Society to Happy Young Old” event to educate on financial planning and retirement savings allocation. This initiative aims to attract 10,000 attendees to SET e-Learning courses and make online study materials accessible to 500,000 people nationwide. The Ministry of Social Development and Human Security emphasizes the importance of reskilling and upskilling for the elderly to adapt to the changing economic landscape and improve their quality of life.
Enhancing Financial Literacy for Long-Term Economic Security
SET is dedicated to improving financial literacy in Thailand, especially among the elderly who are financially vulnerable. The “Happy Money, Happy Young Old” project focuses on providing the necessary knowledge for proper savings and allocation for retirement. By offering SET e-Learning courses and workshops, participants can learn essential financial management skills to ensure economic security and quality of life in the transition to an aged society. The collaborative effort aims to uplift the financial mindset and behaviors of retirees for a prosperous future.
