Consumer advice centers start nationwide campaign week 'Money Focus Week' - free online lectures on financial topics.

According to a report by www.stuttgarter-zeitung.de, the consumer advice centers are planning a nationwide week of action to offer consumers free help on financial issues. This “money focus week” is scheduled to take place from January 22nd to 26th and includes free online lectures on various topics.

The free webinars are offered on five different topics, including “retiring real estate,” “important insurance,” “private retirement planning,” “investing with ETFs,” and “saving on a tight budget.” Particularly noteworthy is the new offer from the Rhineland-Palatinate Consumer Center on the topic of “saving on a tight budget”, which was introduced in response to the persistently high inflation. The consumer advice centers use the data protection-friendly online training tool Edudip next.

The event allows participants to submit questions that will be answered during the webinars. There is also the option to ask further questions in the chat. The maximum number of participants varies depending on which consumer center is offering the lecture, and ranges up to 500 places for the webinars of the Baden-Württemberg consumer center.

This offer from consumer advice centers could have a positive impact on consumers' financial education and knowledge. By providing free, high-quality information on financial topics, consumer advice centers help increase people's awareness and financial health. This could also lead to consumers making better financial decisions and better planning for their financial future.
