With the aim of bolstering financial literacy across Africa, Beige Africa, has unveiled an innovative financial literacy initiative that seeks to equip Africans with essential knowledge to make informed financial decisions and ultimately empower them economically.
In a statement signed by the Co-Founder Wisdom Ating, and an investment analyst who is a key contributor within the Beige community, Louis Akpoveso, on Thursday, in Abuja, the initiative comprises various educational programs, interactive workshops, mentoring sessions, among others to pave the way for 100 future African USD millionaires.
The statement reads: “On September 16, 2023, Beige Africa held its maiden financial literacy masterclass on “How to Invest as a Nigerian”. This program brought together eager finance enthusiasts seeking to gain the tools and insights necessary to navigate the intricacies of the Nigerian financial market.
“Attendees received valuable financial knowledge and investment strategies from seasoned financial experts. According to the Co-Founder Wisdom Ating, there is a gap in terms of financial literacy, and as economic empowerment and financial education become increasingly pivotal in driving economic growth and social transformation, Beige Africa is actively addressing these challenges.
“By imparting financial knowledge and investment skills, the organization is helping individuals in Africa to achieve financial independence and become the future leaders of their economy.
“The success of the Beige Masterclass prompted Beige Africa to consider future sessions and expand the reach of this educational program, enabling even more individuals to benefit from the expert guidance of seasoned financial professionals like Louis Akpoveso, an investment analyst who is a key contributor within the Beige community.
“Beige Africa’s financial literacy outreach began on the 21st of September with a compelling initiative at Starville School, Jahi, Abuja. The school outreach program aims to impact young students, fostering a culture of financial education and encouraging students to make informed financial decisions from an early age.
“Beige Africa is partnering with educational institutions to ensure that the next generation is well-equipped to shape the future of Africa’s economy.
“Beige Africa remains dedicated to continuing and expanding these educational initiatives in Abuja and other regions, ensuring that the next generation is well-equipped to match global competitiveness.”
