SETTING UP OF FINANCIAL LITERACY & CREDIT COUNSELLING CENTRES (FLCCC)

In order to provide free financial literacy /education and credit counselling, RBI had advised Banks to set up FLCCC. The High Level Committee set up by RBI had also reiterated the necessity to cover initiatives under financial literacy and credit counselling while broad basing the Lead Bank scheme. On the basis of the above recommendation, RBI advised Lead Banks to open a Financial Literacy and Credit Counselling Centre (FLCCC) in every district where they have lead responsibility.
