Visa, one of the leading payment solutions providers, has rolled out its financial literacy programme for media in Pakistan by organising the first educational workshop on financial literacy at the Karachi Press Club (KPC). Working with members of KPC and the Karachi Union of Journalists (KUJ), the workshop is aimed at helping to create a better understanding of money management skills among the people of Pakistan.
The workshop was conducted by Visa Corporate Communications Manager in the Middle East Ms Lama Kabbani and Country Manager for Visa Pakistan and Afghanistan Amer Pasha. While Moosa Kaleem Secretary and Tahir Hasan Khan President KPC, Raja Kamran and Naeem Tahir of KUJ were also present on the occasion. The workshop was attended by leading journalists from print and electronic media.
Commenting on Visa's financial literacy programme, Ms Lama Kabbani, said: "Visa believes the most important financial tool is not a product-it is knowledge. That is why, for more than a decade, Visa has been developing financial literacy programmes that teach individuals how to spend, save and budget responsibly. Possessing the skills to make the right money management decisions gives people greater control over their finances, the ability to deal with unexpected costs, and the skills to budget and save responsibly."-PR
