En enkel kurs i finans (A simple course in finance) is an open online course in economics for foreign-born. Coming to Sweden from another country with knowledge from a completely different economic system means that knowledge needs to be replenished. The course addresses, for example, topics such as housing loans, pension savings and other topics that can be difficult to understand without sufficient knowledge of the economic system in Sweden. The course is aimed at those who want to learn more about everyday economics.

The course is a continuation of the material "Your money and your finances" which can be used in Swedish for Immigrants (SFI).
