Nambawan Super Limited has partnered with the Royal Papua New Guinea Constabulary (RPNGC) to roll out NSL’s free Financial Literacy Training to over 6,000 officers and staff across PNG.
The financial literacy program is delivered by fully certified NSL officers and covers five modules that cover the following topics:
Module 1 – Taking Charge of Personal Finances
Module 2 – NSL Superannuation Products and Services
Module 3 – Planning for Retirement
Module 4 – Buying Your Own Home
Module 5 – Financial Literacy Skills for MSMEs
This year, NSL has trained 218 RPNGC officers and staff from Port Moresby and Buka. The participants completed modules 1 to 3 of the FLT where they learned to develop valuable skills needed to improve their financial well-being.
NSL Chief Executive Officer, Paul Sayer commended the RPNGC for prioritising the wellbeing of their workforce by partnering with NSL to deliver this valuable training.
“We are pleased that the RPNGC has taken the initiative to empower their staff with this training, allowing them to develop useful financial management skills that they can utilise in their daily lives to build a better future for themselves and their families,” Mr Sayer said.
“The over 6,000 RPNGC employees perform an important role in ensuring that all Papua New Guineans can feel safe in their communities and live productive peaceful lives. We aim to continue building on this partnership to ensure we are doing our part to support our hardworking Police officers and staff.”
Mr Sayer said the RPNGC employees join more than 3,700 Nambawan Super Members, from both the Private and Public Sectors, trained by NSL in 2022. All Members have access to and are welcome to attend this fully certified FLT course.
RPNGC Acting Assistant Commissioner, Human Resources Division, Samson Siguyaru welcomed the roll-out of the program and remarked that this was the first time an organisation has partnered with the Constabulary to deliver a comprehensive FLT for all RPNGC employees.
“I thank NSL for the great opportunity given through this training for its Members, especially with Police from all ranks and files given access to the FLT,” Mr Siguyaru stated.
He said the RPNGC is serious about developing its members at all levels, including those that will be exiting the organization through retirement.
“On behalf of Police Management, HR Division under my command, we will continue to roll out programs that gives purpose to our officers, to serve our people, our visitors, and the country with full capacity and commitment.”
