— We as a Company and the Bank of Russia are increasingly interested in enhancing financial awareness of people especially among youngsters. We noticed that young people 24-29 years of age very often experienced difficulties in returning loans, — tells to “Komsomolskaya Pravda – Crimea” Andrei Volokhov, Board of Directors’ Member of the Micro-financing Company Vyruchai- Dengi. – This often happens because youngsters are borrowing money being unaware how to repay money and what consequences might be in case of delayed payments ar failure to repay the loan at all.
According to the survey carried out by the micro-financing company the youngsters most often borrow money under impulse purchase. Might just as well, what about going on a trip with friends or buy an i-Phone or go all out with friends on the weekend. I don’t care if I do! We can well afford this! – That’s what a young guy aged 23 would think. And not many of them would think about how they are going to return the borrowed money especially in case when they do not have the stable income source.
The pupils of 10 and 11 grades will learn the course of financial awareness.
