“The number one problem in today’s generation and economy is the lack of financial literacy”
Alan Greenspan
Why we exist
We believe financial sustainability is at risk.
Financial illiteracy, high debt levels, and low investment has compromised society’s ability to meet its financial and social obligations. The tear in the social and economic fabric must be repaired to ensure the financial health of the youth of today, and tomorrow.
With a combined 91 years in finance, investment and technology, we are determined to reverse this educational deficit. And by improving consumer financial discipline, we can develop a new generation of confident young investors.
The Information Revolution has provided the template and the technology.
The Invstr Foundation will deliver complete financial empowerment.
Our Mission
We believe that financial education is key to help people take control of their lives and create a more stable future for themselves and their families. By supporting teachers in financial education, we can help young people to become financially empowered.
“We are stealing from our children and grandchildren. We have over-borrowed, over-consumed and under-invested. We need to borrow less & save more, spend less & invest more.”
Kerim Derhalli

Delivering complete empowerment
Financial education is something we can and should learn from a young age. Currently, it does not exist in many school curriculums. That’s because teachers themselves are ill-equipped to teach the subject to their students.
Invstr Foundation wants to give teachers the confidence and tools to teach financial education and empower all children.
Our Teachers Training program includes:
01
Financial Academy
10 modules spanning 85 lessons designed to take novices on a journey to financial confidence
