About us | Erste Financial Life Park

Our mission

The First Financial Life Park explains economic and financial topics, imparts practical knowledge and important skills, and creates an understanding of interrelationships. Individuals and their financial lives are the focus. The offers and content are value-neutral, free of charge and inclusive, geared to the needs of the target groups and created according to the latest didactic findings.

Our identity

Lack of financial knowledge has an impact on people’s social and economic life. We encourage children, young people and adults to take an interest in economic matters while promoting financial responsibility.

We are transparent, open-minded, and aim to answer all questions in a simple and comprehensible way to reach all our visitors equally, regardless of their age or educational background.
