The account with your children’s future in mind. Open an account for your kids today
Educating your child about money and how to manage it for their financial future is a job many parents want to undertake, but are uncertain of where to begin. Teaching your child about money from an early age will set the right foundation o develop their money management skills. The skills learnt from now will be taken with them all through childhood and into their adulthood. Studies have shown that children, who are introduced to financial literacy at an early age, make smarter saving, spending and investing decisions when they become financially independent adults. Therefore, financial management education is in essence, a lifelong process.
