Sustainable Views: Looking after your financial health

Though most of us would understand what the term ‘financial health’ means, there isn’t quite an official definition. That’s a problem if we want policymakers to pay attention to this area. Ensuring we have enough money at the end of the month should be a concern not just for individuals, but for employers and financial regulators too. This is what Queen Mȧxima of the Netherlands has been campaigning for in her role as UN secretary-general’s special advocate for inclusive finance, or UNSGSA.In this episode, you’ll hear the Queen’s views on financial health and why it matters to everyone, across all countries – not just developing ones. Then, Silvia speaks to Pia Roman Tayag, the director of the UNSGSA office about where the concept of financial health fits in their longer-standing work on financial inclusion.-Links:Here is the link to the FT’s Financial Literacy and Inclusion Campaign, FT FLIC: https://ftflic.comHere are the links to Silvia’s interviews with Queen Máxima, from 2021: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9MZWR6ep5IQ And 2020: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L56k2BlbBRUTo follow Queen Máxima’s financial inclusion work on social media, you can find UNSGSA on LinkedIn, Twitter and Instagram. Investors' Chronicle has supported private investors in the UK for over 160 years by highlighting rewarding investment opportunities.
