“For the new generations, the achievement of pension benefits takes longer to take place and presents less rich prospects. Therefore saving, which implies discipline and commitment, is not sufficient. This saving must be allocated in a productive manner. It was therefore a duty for we at Assogestioni aim to address the younger groups who are those who can more quickly understand the messages we want to give, also through innovative social channels”, he commented Saverio Perissinotto.
The teacher Stefania Romenti commented: “For the younger generations, social media remain the most used information sources even when it comes to topics related to investment choices and forms of savings. The most urgent problem is to distinguish between competent and reliable sources, and fininfluencers who intend to increase their popularity online but by spreading advice that is actually harmful to the financial health of users”.
