how can I sell pi coins after successfully completing KYCDOT TECH
Pi coins is not launched yet in any exchange 💱 this means it's not swappable, the current pi displaying on coin market cap is the iou version of pi. And you can learn all about that on my previous post.
RIGHT NOW THE ONLY WAY you can sell pi coins is through verified pi merchants. A pi merchant is someone who buys pi coins and resell them to exchanges and crypto whales. Looking forward to hold massive quantities of pi coins before the mainnet launch.
This is because pi network is not doing any pre-sale or ico offerings, the only way to get my coins is from buying from miners. So a merchant facilitates the transactions between the miners and these exchanges holding pi.
I and my friends has sold more than 6000 pi coins successfully with this method. I will be happy to share the contact of my personal pi merchant. The one i trade with, if you have your own merchant you can trade with them. For those who are new.
Message: @Pi_vendor_247 on telegram.
I wouldn't advise you selling all percentage of the pi coins. Leave at least a before so its a win win during open mainnet. Have a nice day pioneers ♥️

However, Pi Network has announced plans to launch its Testnet and Mainnet in the future, which may include listing Pi on exchanges.
The current method for selling pi coins involves exchanging them with a pi vendor who purchases pi coins for investment reasons.
If you want to sell your pi coins, reach out to a pi vendor and sell them to anyone looking to sell pi coins from any country around the globe.

US Economic Outlook - Being Decided - M Capital Group August 2021.pdfpchutichetpong
The U.S. economy is continuing its impressive recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic and not slowing down despite re-occurring bumps. The U.S. savings rate reached its highest ever recorded level at 34% in April 2020 and Americans seem ready to spend. The sectors that had been hurt the most by the pandemic specifically reduced consumer spending, like retail, leisure, hospitality, and travel, are now experiencing massive growth in revenue and job openings.
Could this growth lead to a “Roaring Twenties”? As quickly as the U.S. economy contracted, experiencing a 9.1% drop in economic output relative to the business cycle in Q2 2020, the largest in recorded history, it has rebounded beyond expectations. This surprising growth seems to be fueled by the U.S. government’s aggressive fiscal and monetary policies, and an increase in consumer spending as mobility restrictions are lifted. Unemployment rates between June 2020 and June 2021 decreased by 5.2%, while the demand for labor is increasing, coupled with increasing wages to incentivize Americans to rejoin the labor force. Schools and businesses are expected to fully reopen soon. In parallel, vaccination rates across the country and the world continue to rise, with full vaccination rates of 50% and 14.8% respectively.
However, it is not completely smooth sailing from here. According to M Capital Group, the main risks that threaten the continued growth of the U.S. economy are inflation, unsettled trade relations, and another wave of Covid-19 mutations that could shut down the world again. Have we learned from the past year of COVID-19 and adapted our economy accordingly?
“In order for the U.S. economy to continue growing, whether there is another wave or not, the U.S. needs to focus on diversifying supply chains, supporting business investment, and maintaining consumer spending,” says Grace Feeley, a research analyst at M Capital Group.
While the economic indicators are positive, the risks are coming closer to manifesting and threatening such growth. The new variants spreading throughout the world, Delta, Lambda, and Gamma, are vaccine-resistant and muddy the predictions made about the economy and health of the country. These variants bring back the feeling of uncertainty that has wreaked havoc not only on the stock market but the mindset of people around the world. MCG provides unique insight on how to mitigate these risks to possibly ensure a bright economic future.

The European Unemployment Puzzle: implications from population agingGRAPE
We study the link between the evolving age structure of the working population and unemployment. We build a large new Keynesian OLG model with a realistic age structure, labor market frictions, sticky prices, and aggregate shocks. Once calibrated to the European economy, we quantify the extent to which demographic changes over the last three decades have contributed to the decline of the unemployment rate. Our findings yield important implications for the future evolution of unemployment given the anticipated further aging of the working population in Europe. We also quantify the implications for optimal monetary policy: lowering inflation volatility becomes less costly in terms of GDP and unemployment volatility, which hints that optimal monetary policy may be more hawkish in an aging society. Finally, our results also propose a partial reversal of the European-US unemployment puzzle due to the fact that the share of young workers is expected to remain robust in the US.
Empowering the Unbanked: The Vital Role of NBFCs in Promoting Financial Inclu...Vighnesh Shashtri
In India, financial inclusion remains a critical challenge, with a significant portion of the population still unbanked. Non-Banking Financial Companies (NBFCs) have emerged as key players in bridging this gap by providing financial services to those often overlooked by traditional banking institutions. This article delves into how NBFCs are fostering financial inclusion and empowering the unbanked.

2nd OECD/GFLEC Global Policy Research Symposium to Advance Financial Literacy Session 3: A Roundtable on the Way Forward - Insights from Research and Practices OOI See Eim Consumer and Market Conduct Department Bank Negara Malaysia 6 November 2014
2. Specific consumer risks and vulnerable target segments
1
Rising trend of young adults getting into financial difficulty as a result of lifestyle pressure and lack of financial management skills
Highly leveraged low income household, with large loan size relative to their income
-Rising cost of living
Innovative products and easy repayment arrangement
-Easy repayment scheme and repayment via salary deduction - increase indebtedness
-Consumers purchase unsuitable or unnecessary financial products
Cultural aspects and behavioral biases affect decision making
-Consumers more receptive to financial education (FE) during teachable moments
-Lack interest to read product disclosure documents and to understand the risk factors
-No urgency to plan for retirement
In environment of low interest rate, search for higher yield may lead consumers to fraudulent investment schemes and financial scams
3. Understanding consumer behavior is key for policy makers to design appropriate financial literacy initiatives and undertake policy interventions Household Preparedness for income shock* Financial Distress and Debt Management* Review on Measuring Effectiveness of Financial Literacy* OECD (INFE) 2010 Data: Measuring Financial Literacy Among Malaysians Impact of POWER! programme by AKPK*
Recent studies conducted
* in collaboration with a local university ** in collaboration with CGAP Fairness of Interest Rate Methodology on Loan Accounts Effectiveness of Mandatory Disclosure Requirements**
Ongoing Studies Effectiveness and Impact of Responsible Lending Requirements* 2014/2015 Financial Capability and Inclusion Demand Side Survey
2
4. Impact evaluation of POWER! programme revealed the need to reinforce FE programmes at various touch points and life stages
Higher financial knowledge
Mixed observation for financial attitude
Not much improvement in behavior
3
Treated group
Controlled group 1
Controlled group 2
5. 58% of respondents make decisions without an understanding of risk factors
Close to 42% of consumers read no more than half of the financial agreements
49% or respondents are not aware of the product disclosure sheet (PDS)
PDS lacks prominence in the sales process and on websites
Consumers are not given sufficient time to read the PDS
Language used in PDS is difficult to read due to lengthy paragraphs and lack of definition for technical terms
4
FE need to be supported by consumer protection measures
Study on effectiveness of mandatory disclosure requirements
Different treatment by financial institutions (FIs) on advance/over payment by customers - customers not aware of the option to reduce loan principal or treat as instalment pre- payment
Consumers not fully aware on the implication of non-repayments & increase in interest rates charged
Consumers may not know the effective rate of flat rate loans
Fairness of Interest Rate Methodology on Loan Accounts
•FIs would be required to enhance disclosure at optional time and provide proper advice and explanation
•PDS to be presented in more simplified language and terms
•Promote consumers’ interest to read and understand key terms
4
6. The findings from other studies have several important implications
Important to intensify education at school levels
Financial literacy initiatives need to ensure effective planning for retirement and ability to sustain through retirement
Need to educate households on the minimum level of emergency funds required, as 2/3 of households are poorly prepared for income shocks with savings of less than 3 months
To look beyond financial education in changing consumer behaviour as cultural aspects and behavioural biases also play a role in decision making process
Low earning power (of the young) & rising costs – importance of educating the young on better financial management & to cultivate the habits of living within their means
Need to focus education on risk diversification & management, including to diversify savings by investing part of savings funds (for those with financial capability) and risk mitigation via insurance
To re-examine measurement for financial behaviour and attitude with less reliance on self assessment
