Giovanna Zacchi, head of BPER’s ESG Strategy Service, declares: “We are happy to embark on this journey with Azzurra Rinaldi and to be able to offer practical tools for improve women’s financial skills. A theme on which we have always invested heavily at BPER. We are convinced, in fact, that greater awareness of money management can provide them numerous advantages in terms of autonomy, ability to save, debt reduction and caution on investments“.
Azzurra Rinaldi, co-founder of Equonomics adds: “I am really proud of the path we have developed with BPER. We wanted to give life to a powerful and democratic project, open and free. And to make it truly accessible to all, we decided to use a easy and pop languagethrough which to convey the basic concepts of economics in the most immediate way possible, because there is no empowerment without financial awareness”.
