Merrill Wealth Management and IMG Academy have initiated a three-year collaboration to enhance financial education for student-athletes and their families. This initiative aims to equip young athletes with practical financial knowledge that will benefit them throughout their careers and lives.
Merrill Wealth Management's Sports & Entertainment group, which has been active for three years, will deliver the curriculum using Bank of America's Better Money Habits resources. The program will cover essential financial topics such as saving, spending, credit, and basic investing. IMG Academy, in turn, integrates this financial education into its broader curriculum.
The program will be available to students at IMG's Bradenton, Florida, campus, and through the organization's online platform, IMG Academy+, starting in the 2024/2025 academic year.
