CBS revives Financial Wellness Roadshow for teachers



Around 500 participants joined China Bank Savings’ (CBS) “Financial Wellness Roadshow for Teachers” Mindanao run. The free seminars were last held in 2019, with a total of 21 sessions nationwide, including stops in the National Capital Region, Baguio, Cebu, Iloilo, Davao, and General Santos.
 
The 2024 edition of the Financial Wellness Roadshow, which was led by CBS Automatic Payroll Deduction Lending Group Head and First Vice President II Niel Jumawan, focused on refreshing the teachers’ knowledge about the following:
·       debt management 
·       financial goal-setting
·       personal statement of assets and liabilities analysis
·       saving strategies and techniques
 


“We are grateful for the opportunity given to us by the Department of Education (DepEd) to service the financial needs of our modern-day heroes, our DepEd teachers. This program is part of our efforts to give back to the community. We know our teachers are financially literate, but we also know that everyone needs a refresher course to update their personal financial strategies and techniques,” Jumawan said. 
 
“While we stand ready to provide for their financing needs, we also want to build each teacher’s capacity to grow their savings and achieve their financial goals independently,” he added.
 
The roadshow had three stops--Digos City, Davao City, and General Santos City. Jumawan will also be touring CBS Mindanao Locations, including Kidapawan, Isulan, and Koronadal.
 
CBS, the retail lending arm of China Banking Corporation, has 238 locations nationwide, including 168 branches ( APD Lending Centers) and 70 branch lites’. Its ATM network is the country’s second largest in the thrift bank category, with 210.
