Now, the FIF Advisory Board has, upon review, revised the funding support available to banks to the extent of 60% of the expenditure of the camp subject to a maximum of ? 5,000/- per camp.

Further, in order to improve the effectiveness of the financial literacy camps, it has been decided to encourage FLCs and rural branches of banks to use hand held projectors to show Audio-visuals and posters on financial awareness messages.
