(Adnkronos) - Si è svolto a Roma l’evento patrocinato dal Ministero delle Imprese e del Made in Italy e dedicato alla presentazione dei risultati della terza edizione di Edufin Index, l’osservatorio sulla consapevolezza e sui comportamenti finanziari e assicurativi degli italiani. Realizzato da Alleanza Assicurazioni, compagnia di Generali Italia, insieme a Fondazione Mario Gasbarri e con la collaborazione scientifica di SDA Bocconi, l’EduFin Index ha evidenziato la persistenza di una scarsa alfabetizzazione degli italiani rispetto ai temi finanziari ed assicurativi, registrando uno score di 56 su 100.

00:00The financial and insurance knowledge of the Italians is not enough, to say the least,
00:09are the data emerged from the third edition of Edufin Index, the observatory on the awareness
00:13on the financial and insurance behavior of the Italians, at the heart of Allianza Assicurazioni,
00:18company of Generali Italia, and carried out with the participation of Fondazione Mario
00:22Gasparri and the scientific collaboration of SDA Bocconi.
00:25The results of the observatory, based on a sample of 4,000 interviewees, with a particular focus
00:30on the situation of women and young people, show the need to improve the level of
00:34financial and insurance education of the Italians, today blocked by an insufficient 56 out of 100.
00:40The Edufin Index 2024 confirms a gender gap of around 5 points in favor of women,
00:45a geographic gap between north and south of about 4 points, and a generation gap that sees
00:50very young people, 18-24 years old, with scores of about 7 points lower than those of adults.
00:56Young people need to have a greater desire for the future and we firmly believe that
01:05financial education is a step in this direction, because in the end the use of savings is
01:13precisely this bridge between the present and the future.
01:16On the occasion of the presentation of the results of the Edufin Index 2024, the Edufin
01:22Index Women Award was also given to its first edition.
01:25Financial education is a central element for an exercise full of citizenship rights.
01:30This is why we wanted to award three realities of equal merit, for their capacity for social
01:36innovation, for having put at the center of their own initiatives of women's financial
01:43development and also for the impact they had on projects.
01:47Compared to previous generations, Generation Z has a higher level of financial socialization.
01:52Moreover, compared to the past, parents devote more time to financial education to their children.
01:57Fortunately, we are starting to do something at school.
02:02We have families who are trying to replace where school has not intervened, but we are
02:08in a situation that must be resolved as soon as possible.
02:12For this reason, school and digital can help us.
02:17We have to do something.
02:18Central in promoting the financial education of young people is the involvement of schools,
02:22as provided by the Capital Law.
02:24What we are doing, in support of this innovation within the school, is to follow,
02:32as the insurance alliance, together with the Italian Association of Financial Educators,
02:36a project, already in this school year, where we are going to bring, let's say, to put
02:41into practice our skills as a private institution that works with the public sector, and therefore
02:47to put into practice our skills and support teachers in their training and the boys
02:52to have all the answers, waiting for this innovation to take place in a complete way.
