FAMI Financial Literacy: Breaking the Cycle of Poverty    

As the Fund Manager of the First Metro Exchange-Traded Fund (“FMETF”), First Metro Asset Management Inc. (“FAMI”) reaffirms its commitment to financial inclusion and education.

Through this training, FAMI empowers the public (students, young families) to take control of their financial future by teaching them how to:

• Budget their salary and manage daily expenses
• Contribute to their household while saving for personal growth
• Prepare for emergencies through building an emergency fund and availing low-cost insurance
• Pay off debts responsibly
• Save and invest to expand income and improve quality of life

By instilling practical financial habits, the program helps students break free from the cycle of poverty, equipping them not just to earn, but to manage and grow their resources for longterm stability and success.
