Our Story

Founders of Sevrus discussing financial literacy

The Beginning of Sevrus

Sevrus was founded in 2018 by a team of financial experts and educators who recognized a critical gap in financial literacy education. After years of working in banking, investment, and personal finance coaching, our founders noticed that even well-educated professionals often lacked basic money management skills that could dramatically improve their quality of life.

What started as informal workshops among friends and colleagues quickly grew into a movement. By 2020, Sevrus had developed its proprietary financial education framework that combines practical money skills with behavioral psychology to create lasting financial habits.

Why Financial Literacy Matters

Financial literacy isn't just about balancing checkbooks or understanding interest rates. It's about empowerment, security, and creating opportunities. Our research shows that individuals with strong financial literacy skills experience:

  • 40% less financial stress
  • Better ability to weather economic downturns
  • Higher rates of home ownership
  • More confidence in investment decisions
  • Stronger retirement planning

Today, Sevrus has helped over 50,000 individuals take control of their financial futures through our courses, tools, and community programs. We remain committed to our original mission: making financial education accessible, practical, and transformative for everyone.
