Northern Ireland

This Northern Ireland Strategy aims to help people to help themselves, and this will be underpinned by regularly raising awareness of the importance of good money management, and signposting to and supporting individuals in getting the help and advice that they need when they need it.

All sectors in Northern Ireland, public, private and voluntary, have made and continue to make a significant contribution to developing the Financial Capability of Northern Ireland’s consumers. Work in this area is organic, and will grow and develop over time and in response to changing needs and demands.

The Strategy espouses a vision of better-informed, more skilled and more confident consumers, better able to manage, plan and take responsibility for their financial affairs.
