Abstract
What are the promising practices to date in providing youth populations with financial services? Is savings the best place to start? Are partnerships essential to increasing access to youth-inclusive financial services? Do products need to be designed specifically for youth or simply be made more accessible to them? As a result of collaborative input, case studies, and discussions of practitioners from financial services providers and youth-serving organizations during conferences and in Making Cents International’s youth and financial services course, six emerging guidelines have been identified.
