Consumer and Investor Education

Our philosophy of meeting the ever-changing needs of our clients and the Bahamian people in general, has given rise to our on-going consumer education programmes. Knowing that sound financial advice and knowledge are required to promote healthy financial planning, savings and investment, we have created many programmes including:

• BA Headstart - a programme targeting primary school children that is designed to teach and reinforce the habit of saving from an early age The Program now operates in three primary schools:
