First National Finance Corporation joins the global World Investor Week (WIW) campaign organised by the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) to promote investor education and financial literacy in the Maldives. Running from October 6th to 12th, the initiative brings together participants from around the world to raise awareness on the importance of informed investing and investor protection.
IOSCO, the international body of securities regulators, works to uphold fair, efficient, and transparent capital markets. Through WIW, it promotes global collaboration to strengthen financial literacy and responsible participation in financial markets.
For 2025, WIW focuses on three key theme; Technology and Digital Finance, Artificial Intelligence (AI), and Fraud and Scam Prevention, alongside complementary topics such as Crypto Assets and the Basics of Investing.
Building on its involvement in WIW 2024, where First National hosted financial literacy sessions for school students, the company continues to support investor education through this year’s campaign.
Throughout the week, First National will host events to promote financial literacy and raise awareness, and share educational content aligned with the campaign’s global themes, aimed at deepening public understanding of digital finance, risk awareness, and informed decision-making. In 2024, First National participated in WIW by hosting financial literacy sessions for school students.
