Community financial literacy plays an important role in improving the economic stability of a region, including Tanak Beak Village, Narmada District, West Lombok. This village is also known as one of the villages with the highest level of Indonesian Migrant Workers (PMI) in the West Lombok region. However, the level of financial literacy in this village is still a crucial problem, seeing that many people not only work as PMI, but there are other people who have other professions that require a good understanding of financial management. So that serious efforts are needed to increase the level of financial literacy of the community in Tanak Beak Village by conducting a socialization and financial management assistance program that includes basic financial concepts, financial management planning and strategies, to investment to become one of the important instruments in creating effective financial management for the community and PMI groups in Tanak Beak Village. The method of data collection in supporting this research and service is the Participatory Action Research (PAR) method which involves all levels of society and financial institutions to carry out financial management programmes in Tanak Beak Village. Through community service carried out by the Muda Mengabdi team, it is hoped that it will be able to increase community understanding, especially PMI, related to financial literacy in Tanak Beak Village.
