On the idea behind money mantra, Anuj Katiyar, Head of Marketing, Research and Branded Content at BTVI shared “BTVI’s Money Mantra is a journey that we have embarked upon to increase the financial independence of the citizens of the country. By doing these on-ground events we take expert opinions and guidance directly to the people who are dependent on secondary sources for financial guidance. We have had an overwhelming response in Mumbai, Surat, Ahmedabad and now in Delhi. With Money Mantra We have now started a dialogue on financial growth, which till now was a monologue by the business channels. We also have a lot of youth participation which clearly indicates that the young population is also getting aware and involved in financial and wealth generation kind of conversations. It’s very heartening to see people taking wealth generation so seriously. It’s like the butterfly effect. One small change here will have a large impact somewhere else. Small wealth generation conversations will have a much larger positive impact on the economy. And BTVI is happy to contribute to the nation’s growth. So, don’t forget to Save, Invest and Prosper.”
Money Mantra will have its fifth chapter in Bangalore the coming month. The initiative will travel across all metro cities and will also take place in Chennai, Hyderabad and Kolkata over a span of next few months.
