Tashkent hosted a youth forum on financial literacy as part of Global Money Week 2025

Youth Forum on Financial Literacy, one of the main events of the international campaign Global Money Week, was held in the Palace of Youth Creativity on April 26, 2025. The event was organized by the Central Bank of the Republic of Uzbekistan and UZCARD payment system.

The forum brought together hundreds of students from the capital’s universities and became an open platform for discussing current topics in the field of economics and digital literacy. A rich programme with expert speeches, presentations from leading banks and interactive learning formats awaited the participants.

Special attention was paid to personal finance management, career building and orientation in the digital world. The forum also included a case championship. Five teams (25 participants) made it to the finals, and the winners were students of Plekhanov Russian University of Economics who developed a concept of a financial product aimed at a youth audience.

In addition, the forum hosted a networking zone, job and internship fair with the participation of Ipoteka bank, TBC bank, Kapital bank, Sanoat Qurilish bank, Click and UZCARD, and the day ended with a special guest performance by KONSTA, who performed popular tracks for the youth audience.

The Youth Forum was not only a useful educational experience for students, but also an important step in shaping an informed approach to finance and professional development of the younger generation.
