Seeking to ensure the welfare of Lithuanian residents and create value for the public, in September 2022 the Bank of Lithuania established the Centre for Financial Literacy.

The Centre aims to ensure that consumers are aware of alternatives to financial services and choose services by comparing them. The Centre also focuses on fraud and its prevention. Its activities are aimed at enhancing citizens’ understanding of public finances and raising their awareness to understand the importance of taxes paid to the state and private finances.
