Mumbai, Feb 11, 2025: YES Securities has announced that it will empower 1 million students as future-ready investors by FY’28.

YES Securities pioneered ‘WongaWits Season 1’ an on-ground inter-collegiate quiz competition in the BFSI sector, culminating in a Grand Finale in January at the headquarters, YES BANK House. The competition saw enthusiastic participation from 300+ teams across 30+ colleges, fostering financial literacy. S P Jain Institute of Management and Research (SPJIMR) clinched the championship title, followed by Thakur College and Nagindas Khandwala College.

The company then subsequently launched WongaWits LMS, a comprehensive learning platform offering four financial modules and certifications, empowering students to master financial literacy. The company also intends to beef up this LMS platform by offering additional courses in financial tools like Bonds, Futures and Options, Exchange Traded Funds, Systematic Investment Plan, Risk Management and Taxation in investments.

Anshul Arzare, MD & CEO, YES Securities said, “At YES Securities, we believe financial literacy is a fundamental life skill that empowers individuals to make informed decisions about their future. Our commitment to educating 1 million students through our various student centric initiatives like WongaWits, The Wize Whispers is a step toward creating a financially aware and responsible generation. We believe in empowering generations to invest wisely, securely and seamlessly. In today's world, which is deeply coloured by all sorts of unverified social media, it’s important for generations to be able to filter. Financial literacy has both the aspects - to be able to manage finances better and most importantly not fall prey to unverified approaches, protecting money is equally important along with making the best out of investments. We are proud of the enthusiastic participation in our recently concluded WongaWits Quiz and look forward to expanding our outreach to more students across the country.”

To achieve its goal of reaching 1 million students, YES Securities will deploy a comprehensive marketing strategy encompassing digital engagement, social media campaigns, and student-focused programs. On-campus initiatives, including finance workshops, guest lectures, and interactive events at colleges, will further enhance participation. Additionally, strategic partnerships with universities, student organizations, and digital education platforms will help broaden the initiative’s reach and impact.
