ACT Diversity and Inclusion Calendar: Financial wellbeing

Despite the consequences and challenges when lacking, financial wellbeing is still often overlooked in organisations. This coupled with a shortage of financial education people receive before entering the world of work means that attaining financial wellbeing is more challenging. Large corporates need to be mindful of this knowledge gap, with it being addressed as part of a wider wellbeing strategy aimed at looking after the workforce, because not doing so lends itself to a lack of productivity and a less successful team. Our next event in the ACT Diversity and Inclusion Calender focuses on financial wellbeing, with advice to help treasury professionals make better informed decisions, before going into a wider discussion about the importance of a wellbeing strategy and the impact on the treasury function.

This event is free to attend
