Russian financial literacy index, fraud, students of non-economic training programmes, financial and economic practicum, teaching methods

The population with a sufficient level of knowledge in the field of finance and able to freely manage their money and understand banking products is the key to the prosperity of the country’s economy. The digitalization of the economy has brought changes to the education system, so there is a need for subjects on the basis of financial literacy. The training programs have been proposed and implemented, but it is necessary to develop the methods for teaching financial literacy among students of non-economic training programmes, using the example of I. Yakovlev CHSPU.

The analysis of the experience of leading Russian universities, the assessment of the level of financial literacy in the Russian Federation and the Chuvash Republic formed the basis of the developed methodology for teaching the subject “Financial and Economic Practicum”.

The statistical data on the final Russian financial literacy index showed an increase in financial knowledge, as well as an increase in financial fraud. The Government of the country, including the Chuvash Republic, is actively engaged in updating the issues of increasing the level of financial literacy of the population through the development of various programs under the supervision of the Central Bank of Russia, including the development of public education programs in the field of financial issues in their native (Chuvash) language.
