CaixaBank, committed to promoting financial culture
As a socially responsible bank, CaixaBank is committed to boosting the financial culture of customers, shareholders, and society as a whole.
We offer our financial knowledge to all people through impartial, independent and high-quality information, so that they can make decisions and develop habits that promote wellbeing.
Life, our Financial culture plan
We have a consolidated Financial culture plan, designed specifically to include young people and vulnerable groups, and to cover the needs of society as a whole.
in 2020 and 2021 we adapted the Financial culture plan to the new environment marked by COVID-19 and lockdown. Lots of the in-person activities planned were completed digitally, such as the story telling for children based on La Bici de Lola (Lola's Bike), a story to help learn about saving; the AULA programme training sessions for retail shareholders; a large part of the CaixaBank Volunteering workshops, targeted at young people and groups at risk of social exclusion, or the CaixaBank Future talks to plan for retirement.
In addition, the digital field was strengthened with the launch of the platform “Life”, with a variety of content, and “Mucho por hacer" (A lot to do), a high-impact project in collaboration with the main national media.
Our figures in 2021:
- Speeches and workshops: more than 2,000 training sessions and 40,000 attendees (online and in person).
- “Mucho por hacer” (A lot to do) digital content: more than 400 million impressions and 30 million views.
Programmes and university chairs
Our Financial culture plan develops programmes with a social purpose:

CaixaBank chair on sustainability and social impact
In collaboration with IESE Business School, we promote responsible practices among businesses in environmental and social fields.
Adherence to programmes
In March 2018, we signed our agreement to adhere to the Financial education stimulus programme , from Funcas, whose objective is to improve the level and quality of financial culture across Spanish society.
We also collaborate with the Financial education plan promoted by CNMV and the Bank of Spain, through our association with CECA .
