Siti Farzana (Best Student Award)
As part of its continuous efforts to enhance financial literacy in Malaysia, Maybank’s Cashville Kidz successfully reached out to over 7,000 students and some 100 educators from 21 schools nationwide in 2020.
In a year that was hugely impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic, the programme remained focused on increasing the financial literacy level to nearly 40%, surpassing the programme’s initial target of engaging 4,000 students.
Once again, Maybank held its Financial Education Excellence Awards this year to honour educators and students who had displayed extraordinary dedication in promoting and championing financial literacy in the country.
In its second edition, the awards were also aimed at further creating awareness in line with the National Strategy for Financial Literacy 2019-2023.
