Why Oz Clement Knight Believes Financial Literacy May Be the Most Overlooked Investment

For Oz Clement Knight, building capital has never been the final goal.
Through Knight Financial Empowerment Foundation, Knight is focused on increasing financial literacy among underserved communities, inner-city youth, minorities, and women — particularly single mothers.

Knight believes one of society’s largest problems is not access to opportunity, but access to financial understanding.

“You can give someone money and temporarily change their situation. But if you give them structure, you can change their trajectory.” — Oz Clement Knight

The foundation focuses on practical financial education surrounding investing, credit, savings, entrepreneurship, and long-term planning.

Knight believes financial literacy creates leverage.

Knowledge creates freedom.
