Antisipasi Investasi Bodong Melalui Literasi Keuangan Bagi Siswa SMAN 1 Siak

Abstract

Fraudulent investments are increasingly common and often target individuals with low financial literacy, including students. This community service activity aims to improve the understanding of SMAN 1 Siak students regarding the basic concepts of investment and how to recognize illegal investment schemes. The Sharia Investment Gallery of the University of Muhammadiyah Riau provided training to around 115 students and 10 teachers of SMAN 1 Siak as an effort to improve investment and capital market literacy, as well as to prevent the influence of fraudulent investments that are increasingly common. The methods used include seminars, interactive discussions, and case simulations. The results of the activity showed an increase in students' understanding of legal investments and strategies to avoid financial fraud. It is hoped that this education can help students make wiser financial decisions in the future.
