This Year’s Theme

Think before you follow, wise money tomorrow

The 2025 GMW theme highlights how digital finance trends, “finfluencers”, and AI complicate identifying reliable financial advice, especially for young people.

Emotional and behavioral biases, like herd mentality, can worsen decision-making under peer or social media pressure.

In this context, it is crucial that young people develop sound money management skills, recognize emotional triggers, and develop a critical eye towards information sources.

Strengthening financial literacy can help young people better navigate financial markets, resist temptation, and spot biased advice, ultimately leading to smarter financial decisions.
