State launches website to help Pennsylvanians manage, protect finances

Posted

State officials recently announced a new online resource to help Pennsylvanians learn about, manage, and protect their finances.

The Pennsylvania Department of Banking and Securities has launched My Money, a new website that consolidates information intended to help users make informed financial decisions, according to state officials.

The site, which is available at pa.gov/MyMoney, includes resources aimed at individuals at various life stages, including education and career planning, homeownership, military service, retirement, and managing unexpected financial challenges. It also provides links to state and federal programs to help Pennsylvanians avoid scams, fraud, and financial exploitation. 

Officials said the platform is intended to help address the increasing complexity of financial services and also includes information on recognizing and reporting fraud. 

“Financial scams are becoming more sophisticated, and consumers are often forced to search across dozens of websites to find reliable information,” said DoBS Secretary Wendy Spicher. “The new My Money website gives Pennsylvanians one trusted place to find the tools, resources, and fraud prevention information they need."

The My Money website contains dozens of financial resources to help Pennsylvanians navigate major life events and financial decisions, including higher education, family finances, homeownership, veterans’ services, retirement and more.

State officials said the new site is part of a broader effort to improve access to consumer resources and financial education across Pennsylvania.
