Bucharest Stock Exchange (BVB) is a strong promoter of financial education among students, graduates and young professionals, through all the educational projects it has developed in partnership with specialized entities in the field. The partnership between the Bucharest Stock Exchange and Western University of Timisoara (UVT) concluded today aims to anchor the future generations of students and graduates in the economic reality in which we live by facilitating their access to information related to saving, investing or entrepreneurship.
"Students are increasingly attentive to the operating laws of macroeconomics and the mechanisms of the real economy. Financial culture is more important than ever, and the new graduates that Western University trains, especially for the jobs of the future, receive a substantial package of information from the financial field, from now on also through the partnership between UVT and the Bucharest Stock Exchange", declared Univ. Prof. Dr. Marilen Gabriel Pirtea, Rector of the Western University of Timisoara.
"Through this partnership, we want to lay the foundation for a generation of students knowledgeable in managing their own finances. Whether we're talking about the participation of the specialists of the Bucharest Stock Exchange in the courses and conferences organized by the West University of Timișoara, in educational workshops, or in other special projects that we will run together with the University, we hope that through these we will equip the students with the information and skills that they need to manage their money effectively. Unfortunately, without financial education, our financial decisions and the actions we take do not have a solid foundation for success. The development of strategic educational partnerships with universities in the country is one of the concerns of the Bucharest Stock Exchange for the next period.", Adrian TĂNASE, Director General of the Bucharest Stock Exchange.
