We need financial literacy to make good financial decisions. But did you know that half of Europeans have low financial literacy levels, and that 60% of them are women? Our host Stefania Secola talks to Annamaria Lusardi from Stanford University about what financial literacy is, why it matters and how we can improve it, especially among women. The views expressed are those of the speakers and not necessarily those of the European Central Bank. Published on 13 March 2025 and recorded on 7 March 2025. In this episode: 00:01 Commitments made by central banks How did central bank Governors commit to improving financial literacy in their respective countries? What are the desired outcomes? 00:27 Looking at the numbers How financially literate are Europeans? How big is the gap between men and women? And what can we do about it? 01:55 Financial literacy defined What is financial literacy? How does it relate to financial independence? 03:58 Measuring financial literacy There are three simple questions, known as the “Big Three”, that experts use to measure financial literacy. Can you, our listener, answer them? 05:59 Why central banks care about financial literacy Why does financial literacy matter for central banks? How does it relate to the effectiveness of monetary policy and trust in what a central bank does? And how does it affect banking supervision? 10:53 Financial knowledge in Europe Why is financial literacy in Europe so low? What can we do to increase the overall level of financial literacy among Europeans? 12:30 When to start addressing financial literacy When is the best time to improve people’s financial literacy? Is it limited to schools or are there also other teachable moments? 15:50 The gender gap in financial literacy Why is there this gender gap and why is it a problem? What can we do to make sure that half the population isn’t left behind? 20:14 The role of fintech Does fintech complement financial literacy? What risks do gender differences in digital literacy pose when it comes to using fintech? 22:26 The road ahead Central banks made five commitments to improve financial literacy. What are these commitments? 24:50 Financial literacy question: answer revealed We answer the first “Big Three” question. Listen and see whether you chose the correct answer! 25:45 Our guest’s hot tip Annamaria shares her hot tip with our listeners.

What does a day in the life of a banking supervisor look like? How does one become a supervisor? And why does no one care about them – until things go wrong, that is! In our second Summer School episode, our host Stefania Secola speaks to Ramón Quintana Aguirre, who heads the supervision of the largest euro area banks. Published on 10 August 2024 and recorded on 16 July 2024. Show notes: 1:45 What is the typical background of a banking supervisor? Why did our guest decide to pursue this career? And what kind of qualifications and work experience do supervisors usually have? 6:00 What do supervisors expect from the banks they supervise? Do banks have enough capital and strong governance structures in place? And what do we do when banks aren’t properly managing their risks? 6:36 Why is the work of a banking supervisor so relevant? If banks fail, people’s lives are directly affected. So why does banking supervision only make the news when things go wrong, but never when they succeed? 10:11 What does a day in the life of a banking supervisor look like? From coming into the office to meeting with colleagues, managers and bank CEOs – what’s a typical day in banking supervision? 13:00 Why is supervising banks much more than just sitting at a desk? Engaging with bankers, supervisors and executives from all over Europe – the work of a banking supervisor may be more people-oriented than you think. 15:18 How do supervisors stay on top of things? The world in which we operate is changing.
