Topic: | Enhance youths’ financial capability through a tech-driven solution. According to research, limited resources have been invested in building youths’ financial capability. This could have led to financial challenges of both their personal life and economy sustainability. Together with the trend of digitalisation, many now turn to online platforms, e.g. Youtube, mobile applications to seek advice for financial planning instead of physical banks. Please review the role of Hong Kong’s banks in it and develop a service or product with the use of technology, e.g. mobile application, platform that serves at least Hong Kong users to enhance their financial capability. | ||||||||||||||
