## Resource

Ireland has just launched a bold new initiative: its first-ever financial literacy ambassadors, appointed by the Minister for Finance to empower every citizen with the tools to manage money, plan for the future, and make smarter financial choices. Gráinne Griffin and Denis Carrigan, both unpaid but reimbursed for essential expenses, bring deep expertise and passion to the role, championing financial confidence across all walks of life. This move aligns with the European Commission’s push for member states to prioritize financial education, especially as Ireland prepares to introduce a new Investment Account. The goal? To help people save, invest, and build resilience — ensuring everyone, regardless of background, can navigate their finances with confidence and security.
