(CT) Assess
financial literacy
In Indonesia it is still not evenly distributed and has not been fully understood by all levels of society.
In fact, added CT, a good understanding of finance can help someone realize that there is no instant way to achieve wealth.Everything requires the right process, planning, and strategy.
“Financial literacy has not reached all Indonesian people. If the community understands financial problems well, they will understand that there is no such thing as being as easy as turning the palm of the hand,” CT said at the 2025 LPS Financial Festival which was held in Medan, Wednesday (8/20/2025).
According to him, the main benefit of financial literacy is the ability to avoid various forms of financial sector fraud.For example, the rise of cases of social gathering to investment in fake which harms many people.
He emphasized that with the correct understanding, the community can be more alert, know how to protect themselves, and be more wise in making financial decisions.
“There is nothing too special in life. So financial literacy avoids the name of fraud. We know there is this social gathering (bulging). So reports to the police. With literacy we can avoid. If people do not understand it can be cheated. Then he understands by understanding the financial system he can invest in the future,” he said.
CT added that financial literacy is also an important provision for organizing the future.By understanding the financial system, a person can begin to prepare a long -term plan through savings, stock investment, to other financial instruments.
He said small steps such as saving early on would help create a strong financial foundation before switching to a more complex form of investment.
“The younger siblings are now limited, but if you can do something simple, you can save. If it has increased (finance), you can invest in stocks, investment in many more financial (instruments),” he explained.
For the younger generation, he added, the opportunity to increase financial knowledge is far more open than the past.Now, access to information and financial education is widely available through various digital platforms, seminars, and literacy programs initiated by the government and financial institutions.
“In the past there was no financial literacy, now for many young people. So the opportunity to be able to advance will be greatly helped if you understand finances. Money is not everything but without money there is nothing,” he said.
