Public engagement

The School of Banking, Finance and Insurance is committed to promoting financial and insurance literacy as part of its broader engagement with society. 

In Italy, the average level of basic financial knowledge remains significantly lower than in other major European countries (OECD/INFE International Survey of Adult Financial Literacy). Drawing on its academic expertise, the School seeks to contribute to improving public understanding of financial and insurance topics. 

This commitment takes shape through a range of activities, including media contributions, interviews, public events, and educational initiatives aimed at both young people and adult learners. These initiatives are designed to make complex financial concepts more accessible and to support more informed decision-making. 

Through its public engagement activities, the School promotes a vision of finance that is ethical, inclusive and socially responsible, recognising its role as a driver of more equitable and sustainable development.
