Find out how Westpac is working with our key community partners.
Financial literacy, or the ability to effectively manage money, is about more than numeracy. Through necessity, Australians are often self-taught money managers.
As a bank, Westpac has a role to play in assisting consumers to manage their money productively. We've developed Financial First Steps, a course to enable consumers, particularly young people to gain basic money management training.
Further information about Financial First Steps can be downloaded here:
