  • Taipei Fubon Bank and the Nanyang Taiwan Sisters Association co-hosted a financial empowerment workshop for new residents in Taipei.
  • The workshop trained new residents to become "seed teachers" to educate their communities on financial literacy and fraud prevention.
  • The initiative aims to enhance new residents' financial knowledge and their ability to use financial services independently.

Taipei Fubon Bank, in collaboration with the Nanyang Taiwan Sisters Association, has launched a financial empowerment initiative for the city's new residents. The program aims to equip this community with essential financial knowledge and skills, fostering greater independence in managing their finances.

The initiative kicked off with a "New Resident Financial Empowerment Workshop" held on August 22. A key component of the workshop was the training of "seed teachers" from among the new resident population. These individuals, who completed their training and qualification reviews in July, will now play a crucial role in disseminating financial education within their own communities.

By empowering these seed teachers, the program seeks to create a ripple effect, extending financial literacy and fraud prevention awareness to a wider audience. This approach recognizes the unique challenges and needs of new residents and provides them with the tools to navigate Taiwan's financial landscape more effectively and securely. The ultimate goal is to enhance their confidence and capability in using financial services.
