HSBC India Launches INR 200 Crore Programme to Promote Financial Literacy
HSBC India has launched a four-year, INR 200 crore philanthropy programme to enhance financial literacy nationwide from 2026 to 2030. The initiative aims to equip communities, especially women, youth, migrant workers, persons with disabilities, low-income households, and first-time formal financial service users, with skills to use formal and digital financial services safely, make informed decisions, and prevent fraud. The programme will be implemented through partnerships with non-profits and academic institutions, guided by an advisory group of experts. It follows India's progress in expanding financial access, including 60 crore Jan-Dhan accounts.
