SUMMARY:Canada Club Toronto: Financial Literacy is not nearly enough
DESCRIPTION:Celebrating Financial Literacy Month every November is easy\, and…entirely insufficient.  There has been a huge effort in the last decade to improve financial literacy in Canada — from government\, non-profits\, academia and industry\, but still the needle hasn’t moved.\nWhat are the most intractable barriers? What are the most promising and exciting solutions? Certainly digital interventions\, grounded in cutting edge behavioural science\, will be key. \nJoin Canadian Club Toronto on November 4th as we engage in a conversation about the financial challenges Canadians are facing as we emerge from the pandemic\, and how better knowledge\, insight and behaviour can help address them.
