The Opening of the Savings Village Stock II, Batch II Financial Literacy in Malang, was held on Friday, 5 August 2022. In his remarks, the Dean of FEB UNISMA Nur Diana SE, MSi said the Investment Gallery of the Savings Stock Village Program had been carried out until the 2nd Bacht was a form of Cooperation and support from various parties, especially the Financial Services Authority of Malang, the Representative Office of the Indonesian Stock Exchange JATIM and PT Indo Premier Sekuritas. This is a fundamental step for FEB UNISMA's contribution to support the movement to increase financial literacy, which is still minimal, especially for villagers. The rise of fraudulent investments that harm the community makes this program very useful. "After the success of the Bach 1 Savings Village Program in 2021, it was initiated in six villages in Malang Raya, this time in 2022 with the theme Protect Finance Caring for the Future as a very appropriate theme for the Bach II Nabung Saham village program which is targeted for 27 villages," said Diana.

According to him, the Savings Village program will hold various activities such as education and dissemination of investment in the capital market, technical and fundamental analysis in investing using applications that can be used on a gadget, and closed with the Savings Village Competition. Diana hopes that the saving stock village program can run continuously and realize financial inclusion that can improve the welfare of rural communities and reduce poverty levels in the village. They see that village people usually store assets in the form of goods or savings that are less productive. At the end of the event, Diana thanked those who had supported the implementation of the Savings Village program.

Meanwhile, Adhe Citra Widiatmoko, East Regional Manager of PT Indo Premier Sekuritas Malang, said that this batch II saving village activity with the theme of Financial Literacy was exciting to increase public literacy to enter the Malang area. Do not turn a blind eye to the literacy rate of our society, especially in the capital market, which is still tiny. This activity is an effort of the Investment Gallery of the Indonesia Stock Exchange, Faculty of Economics and Business, and UNISMA to form young investors and can create financial literacy that can be evenly distributed among rural areas, which can determine the future direction, which lately has been a lot of fraudulent or fraudulent investments.

The Head of the Financial Services Authority, Mr. Sugioarto Kasmuri, said that the share-saving village program would be contested throughout Indonesia. I can say a little that our economy is in an extraordinary downturn. We are going through a recovery period faced with the challenge of inflation. I was delighted to welcome the Village Savings Batch II event with the fantastic theme of protecting finances and protecting the future. After the Savings Village Activity Batch II was opened, it was continued with a material presentation by Mr. Sugiarto Kasmuri, the Head of PT. The Financial Services Authority said that he recognized the importance of investment and how to distinguish between legal and illegal investments. Talking about investment cannot be separated from how to manage finances because it also needs investment. Therefore we are competent in managing money so that what we need is achieved. The material also presented the risks in investment products. There are two types of risk in investment, namely moderate risk, such as mutual funds. In addition to moderate risk, there is also a high risk, such as stocks. Moreover, there are many other submissions. This activity was followed by a question and answer session by participants from zoom in various villages in the Malayang Raya and Kab. Pasuruan. With the end of the question and answer session, this activity ended and went smoothly. Therefore, with this activity, it is hoped that the village community can gain value and implement it.

Dewi Sriana Rihantyasni, the Head of the JATIM Indonesia Stock Exchange Representative Office, said that Covid19 is still attacking the State of Indonesia with different names, but the government can incessantly carry out vaccinations to get better, especially financially. Illegal investment is rampant. In addition to health vaccines, in the financial world, it turns out that financial vaccines are needed, like this financial vaccine that can be used as a giant spear, namely socialization of education in the financial sector, including education dissemination about investment in the capital market, which is known that literacy is still low for people in Indonesia, especially rural communities. Therefore, the Indonesia Stock Exchange has come to support all educational socialization activities about the capital market carried out by many parties, especially on the IDX FEB UNISMA Investment Gallery. Many changes were driven by the IDX FEB UNISMA Investment Gallery. In the batch, I only conducted education in 6 villages. However, 20 villages will be targeted this time, not only in Malang but also in the Pasuruan district; this shows extraordinary progress. I appreciate the Management of the IDX FEB UNISMA Investment Gallery and the ranks of the Deans of the Faculty of Economics and Business UNISMA.
