a+b=3’s focus in Minnesota:
- Immigrants: the US financial system is very different from what immigrants know, and consumer protection, despite the efforts and actions of the CFPB, is low. For a newcomer in the US, aggressive financial offers and financial vocabulary can be daunting. Our tailor-made programmes aim to help immigrants understand the basics of credit in the US, and how to budget and anticipate bills.
