July 8, 2025, a special TALAkayan workshop about Financial Literacy was held at Seda Hotel BGC, participated in by Bloggers, Influencers, and Media practitioners facilitated by Financial guru Ms. Salve Iba\u00f1ez.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

TALAkayan<\/strong>, an award-winning series of financial education workshops, is the pioneering initiative of Tala Philippines<\/strong> in its mission to enhance financial literacy for the global majority. Implemented in partnership with Empower and Transform (EAT)<\/strong>, the program aims to equip Filipinos with knowledge on the basics of personal finance and money management.<\/p>\n

Tala Philippines is further expanding the reach and impact of TALAkayan by rolling out educational digital content<\/strong> that is practical and easy to understand from its successful workshop series. This is part of its efforts to make financial education even more accessible and share the value of financial education and literacy to Filipinos. Every week, a new video will be uploaded on Tala Philippines\u2019 social media platforms that covers topics from viral saving challenges and everyday inflation hacks to understanding credit score and investing.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The financial literacy video series<\/strong> was also launched this same day. Financial guru Salve Iba\u00f1ez<\/strong>\u00a0expounded on the concepts of goal setting, saving and budgeting, debt management, differentiating between good and bad debt, calculating one\u2019s net-worth, retirement planning, and investing, and the importance of these in improving financial health.<\/em><\/p>\n

At the end of the workshop, she stressed how anyone can greatly benefit from having access and knowledge about personal finance, and applying it in their day-to-day lives. This is the message Tala Philippines wants to bring out through the TALAkayan workshops and the video series\u2014financial education is for everyone, no matter what age, occupation, gender or background you may have. It is a valuable tool that can impact lives for the better.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cYou are not defined by when you started in your financial journey, but the steps you take to achieve progress,\u201d<\/em> Salve added.<\/p>\n

To date more than 1,200 participants from various sectors, including microentrepreneurs, factory workers, 4Ps graduates, OFWs, jeepney drivers, and farmers, have already been engaged across 13 TALAkayan workshops. These were held in various locations in Metro Manila, Laguna, Quezon Province, Nueva Ecija, and Singapore.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cOur goal with the TALAkayan workshops and video series is to make financial education more accessible to many. Money management and other related concepts aren\u2019t usually taught in schools but it\u2019s fundamental in leveling the playing field and giving everyone a fair shot despite the inequalities we may face every day,\u201d<\/em> said Missy Santos, Marketing Director of Tala Philippines.<\/p>\n
