Abstract:
Financial instability and a lack of financial literacy are commonly blamed for the growth in bankruptcy and social concerns among the younger generation. Between 2017 and October 2021, 36,173 Malaysians aged 18 to 44 were declared bankrupt, according to the latest numbers from the Malaysian Department of Insolvency. Furthermore, Selangor had the highest number of instances (25 per cent) (MdI, 2021). This problem offers a substantial obstacle to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which aim to reduce inequality and promote social and economic inclusion for all citizens. Additionally, due to the recent outbreak of Pandemic COVID-19, financial transactions have shifted from physical to electronic. This circumstance creates an additional risk since it has resulted in the ease of conducting financial transactions. Thus, it is vital for students to have a solid understanding and awareness of online transactions, commonly referred to as digital financial literacy (DFL), to practice sound financial management. Financial literacy deficiencies (both fundamental and digital) would pose a substantial threat to individual financial management. As a result, assessing current university students' financial literacy is crucial. Most of these students will confront financial challenges such as budgeting for study-related costs using the scholarship or pocket money they earned. This research aims to determine the degree of financial literacy (both basic and digital) among Selangor university students.

Abstract:
Objective - This study aims to assess students' financial literacy levels using digital financial literacy (DFL), the most recent element. Methodology – Students who are based in Selangor, Malaysia, were chosen for this study as they recorded a high rate of youth bankruptcy. Convenience sampling was used to distribute the questionnaires among the students between March and August of 2021, where a total of 184 responses were retrieved. Findings and Novelty – The results indicated that students possessed advanced financial knowledge and confidence. Despite the extensive experience in completing online financial transactions, the students lack digital financial knowledge and an understanding of the risks associated with digital financial services. Therefore, including DFL in financial education is essential to ensuring future generations' financial well-being. This study also adds to the limited literature on financial digital literacy and serves as an eye-opener to policymakers on its importance in financial education.

Abstract:
The present paper explores various approaches to the development of cognitive process dimensions in financial literacy. Applying the regression model, the study has examined the strength of the relationship between the actual financial competence of 413 Brazilian’s students aged 18-21, studying economic disciplines, and their school performance. The research has produced the following conclusions: (a) a weak dependence of actual skills on school performance; (b) inherently associated consequence of school performance is not corresponding to the actual financial skills; (c) a low level of financial competence in the dimensions - Remember, Understand and Apply.

Abstract:
The CFA Society Pittsburgh launched a high school financial literacy campaign resulting in sig- nificant improvements in financial behavior, subjective and objective financial knowledge, and self- esteem. Before the campaign, male students and students with higher grade point averages (GPAs) show better objective knowledge. In addition, we find disconnect between actual and perceived fi- nancial knowledge. Students exhibited gains in all aspects after completing the program. The subca- tegories with the lowest pre-survey scores or female students show the greatest improvements in the post-survey. Students with lower GPAs experienced greater improvement in financial behavior and objective knowledge, while higher GPA students improved more in subjective knowledge.

Abstract:
Financial Inclusion and the level of financial literacy of their citizens has recently become a growing concern for developed and emerging economies. Since financial markets have grown more complex and it has become increasingly difficult for the common person to decide wisely, financial literacy has become more and more important. The purposes of this paper are to provide an outline of financial literacy and financial inclusion and to investigate the contribution that financial literacy makes to the advancement of financial inclusion. In order to achieve this goal, several measures taken by financial authorities to promote financial literacy are studied, which eventually increases financial inclusion in the nation. According to an RBI report, these actions assisted in raising the Financial Inclusion Index to 56.4 in March 2022 from 53.9 in March 2021.Financial inclusion, financial growth, and financial stability are all attributed to financial literacy.

Abstract:
Financial literacy is important for employees in the banking sector, as they are required to advise and administer the savings and investments of their clients. This study aims to establish financial literacy levels for banking employees and socio-demographic variables that influence their financial literacy levels. When collecting the necessary data for analysis, a survey was used for the total final sample of 120 employees of the banking sector. Descriptive statistics, the two-sample T-test and a simple ANOVA were used to determine the actual financial literacy levels and the socio-demographic factors influencing them. Overall, the employees were found to have moderately high levels of financial literacy. Only gender, race and education level were found to have an influence on financial literacy levels. This study informs the banking sector about how well employees are involved in financial literacy and which socio-demographic groups of their employees they need to focus on when exploring financial education programs.

Abstract:
Students who are financially dependent on parents and financial-independent students are affected by Covid-19. Preventing financial problems can be carried out by good financial literacy. Based on precedent studies, financial literacy in Telkom University students was good; however, in reality, a protest emerged regarding tuition fees, generating a gap between the theory and reality. This study aimed to test a financial literacy argument of Telkom University students and the reality during pandemic. The study employed a quantitative method, verificative description, and purposive non-probability sampling technique. The study respondents amounted to 100 students of Business Administration undergraduate study. Data were analyzed using path analysis. From the hypothesis testing results, the financial literacy variable affected financial attitude, financial inclusion, and financial behavior. The inclusion variable affected and mediated the effect of financial literacy on financial behavior. Meanwhile, financial attitude did not affect and mediate the effect of financial literacy on financial behavior.

Abstract:
There have many been studies on women’s economic empowerment (WEE), most related to financial literacy (FL). However, in this digital era marked by the emergence of Fintech, FL needs to be expanded into digital financial literacy (DFL), in making good financial decisions, especially regarding Fintech products. Hence, the study aims to investigate the influence of DFL and FL on WEE. In this study, 259 female respondents participated. Using the PLS Structural Equation Modelling, the study found that both DFL and FL had a positive and significant effect on WEE. However, further analysis found that DFL affects all 5 dimensions of WEE. Meanwhile, FL only affects 3 components of WEE. In addition, the results also show that DFL has a much greater influence on WEE compared to FL. These results prove that, in this digital era, FL is not sufficient for making good financial decisions, but more understanding is needed, especially related to digital literacy. These results are expected to provide a new understanding of the importance of the DFL variable in the study of WEE, as well as input for the Indonesian government to give more consideration to DFL in making policies related to WEE.

Abstract:
There is concern about lack of financial literacy and need for financial literacy education, but little or no attempt to understand their nature. Three questions were asked: 'What is financial literacy?', 'What is financial literacy education?' and 'What might be the components of an effective financial literacy curriculum?'. Adopting an inductive grounded theory approach and a pragmatist philosophy, in association with real-world organisations such as the National Institute of Adult Continuing Education (NIACE), the Financial Services Authority (FSA), and the National Research and Development Centre for adult literacy and numeracy (NRDC), empirical data was collected from surveys, observation and interviews. This was the first time that: perceptions of financial advisers in England on financial literacy were systematically analysed; financial literacy education provision in England was examined using the FSA framework; financial literacy education for financial literacy providers was the subject of a study; a financial literacy curriculum was categorised using the FSA's baseline survey areas; and financial literacy curriculum components were explored within a new synthesis of 'Competency Based Action learning (CoBAl)'. It was found that often financial literacy was misunderstood, financial literacy education interventions ineffective, financial literacy practitioners unqualified, and financial literacy curricula simplistic. Public policy needs to be directed towards developing a more rigorous and aspirational form of financial literacy education that would facilitate more effective outcomes. Financial literacy is more than information or capability; it is the demonstration of competencies in actual performance in the financial world. Financial literacy educational interventions need to be multidimensional and set within the framework of adult learning and not that of children learning within a formal educational system. A financial literacy curriculum that synthesises components relating to knowledge, skills and attitudinal competencies with action learning in the real-world context is likely to lead to the generation of more effective financial experiences.

Teachers, administrators, parents, business owners, and community members need to know the importance and value of a Personal Finance class. In this study, a two page survey was given to teachers, administrators, parents, business owners, and community members to determine the importance they placed on financial literacy curriculum and what content they think should be included in a financial literacy curriculum at Bozeman High School. The results of this survey showed that most participants of the survey thought financial literacy was important and that financial literacy curriculum was also important. The conclusions of this study were that financial education is beneficial and that the concepts taught in that type of curriculum were valued.

Abstract:
Financially literate consumers are empowered with the knowledge and skills necessary to make sound financial decisions that ensure their long-term economic well-being. Within the context of the range of cognitive, psychological, and social factors that influence consumer behavior, simulations enhance financial literacy by developing consumers' mental models for decision-making. Technical communicators leverage plain language and visual language techniques to communicate complex financial concepts in ways that consumers can relate to and understand. Simulations for financial education and decision support illustrate abstract financial concepts, provide a means of safe experimentation, and allow consumers to make informed choices based on a longitudinal comparison of decision outcomes. Technical communicators develop content based on best practices and conduct evaluations to ensure that simulations present information that is accessible, usable, and focused on the end-user. Potential simulation formats range from low- to high-fidelity. Low-fidelity simulations present static data in print or digital formats. Mid-fidelity simulations provide digital interactive decision support tools with dynamic user inputs. More complex high-fidelity simulations use narrative and dramatic elements to situate learning in applied contexts.

Abstract:
På senaste tid har det individuella kravet på ekonomiska frågor ökat allt mer och mer i takt med den teknologiska framfarten. I samband med detta är det väldigt viktigt med finansiell kunskap, även kallat financial literacy, för att kunna utföra dessa vardagliga situationer. Vad är det då som förbättrar en individs financial literacy? Vissa studier hävdar att det är det finansiella beteende som är grunden till en god financial literacy, medan andra påstår att det har med räknekunskap att göra. Andra faktorer, såsom utbildning, kön och ålder konstateras spela en stor roll om man frågar andra aktörer. Vilken av dessa faktorer är då den viktigaste för att man ska ha en god financial literacy och kunna tackla dessa situationer som uppkommer i vardagen? För att kunna genomföra detta arbete gjordes en kvantitativ undersökning i form av en enkätundersökning där svar hämtades från 257 respondenter (18+). Materialet från enkätsundersökningen analyserades och jämfördes med tidigare forskning. I denna studie så kom vi fram till att den viktigaste faktorn för en god financial literacy är ekonomisk utbildning som sedan följs av räknekunskap och finansiellt beteende, som kan jämföras med den kognitiva förmågan hos individer som beskrivs av rational choice theory. Både kön och ålder visar skillnader i det finansiella beteendet men visar inget direkt samband till financial literacy.

Abstract:
The social and economic effects of high profile governance scandals such as the National Safety Council, HIH and Centro have triggered much debate, reform and research into predicting and preventing future failures. While this has meant director financial literacy is now recognised as a core capability required of each individual director, there has been little guidance on what this capability involves other than the very general statement of being able to 'read and understand financial statements'. This thesis presents the results of a Delphi study aimed at identifying the core concepts a director needs to master to be financially literate. Thirty-five experts drawn from accounting, education and practice agreed that to be financially literate a director must have a conceptual understanding of 24 basic accounting concepts and be able to independently apply this understanding to a strategic evaluation of the finances of the organisation they serve.

Abstract:
Depuis plusieurs années, les ménages font face à un processus de responsabilisation financière croissante. Dans ce contexte, les individus ont-ils les compétences financières suffisantes pour prendre des décisions éclairées en matière de planification financière, d'accumulation du patrimoine, d'endettement et de retraite? Quelles solutions peuvent-elles être envisagées pour atténuer les effets néfastes du manque d'éducation financière? Cette thèse contribue à répondre à ces deux questions à travers une évaluation de l'éducation financière en France et de ses liens avec les comportements financiers et à travers l'étude des déterminants de l'éducation financière sur le long terme et des solutions potentielles au manque d'éducation financière. Je montre que les niveaux d'éducation financière en France s'établissent dans la moyenne internationale avec des niveaux hétérogènes entre sous-groupes de populations. Je documente aussi le fait que l'éducation financière peut avoir une influence sur les comportements financiers notamment en favorisant la participation aux marchés financiers et la planification financière sur le long terme. Je remets par ailleurs en question le rôle des conseillers financiers en tant qu'alternative à l'éducation financière et montre que ceux-ci ne peuvent s'y substituer. Finalement, j'établis que l'éducation en fin de vie est significativement liée à certains facteurs éducatifs et cognitifs en début de vie mais aussi à la fragilité financière au cours du cycle de vie. Ce dernier résultat a des implications importantes pour l'élaboration de programmes d'éducation financière ciblés
In the recent years, households have been facing a process of increasing financial responsibility given a globa trend of pension systems privatization, loan markets liberalization and credit expansion. Meanwhile the supply of financial products has become more complex. In this context, do people have the ability to process economic and financial information and take sound decisions in terms of financial planning, wealth accumulation, debt and pensions? What remedies can be considered so as to mitigate the adverse effects of poorly informed financial decisions? This thesis contributes to answering both questions through an empirical assessment of financial literacy in the French population and its relationship with financial behaviors but also through a study of the determinants of financial literacy over the life course and potential remedies to financial illiteracy. I report evidence that financial literacy levels in France appear to be in the international average with heterogeneous levels across population subgroups: men, educated, middle-age as well as wealthy respondents tend to perform better. I also show that financial literacy can have an influence on financial behaviors by fostering participation to the stock market and financial planning in the long-run. I question the role of financial advisor as potential alternatives to financial education and show that these cannot substitute

Abstract:
There is a paucity of evidence into why boards such as Centro fail despite meeting normative financial governance standards. Drawing on Agency and organisational behavioural theories this mixed-method study involved developing and applying in the field a psychometrically robust measure of director financial literacy (DFL) and interviewing directors to investigate how they develop and apply this capability to financial monitoring. Findings verified that, generally, directors lack the requisite baseline DFL for financial monitoring and challenged the prevailing view that skill-based board diversity is a critical antecedent for effective board performance. Importantly, this study identifies practical strategies for strengthening DFL.

Abstract:
This dissertation focuses on the effects of financial literacy on individual financial behaviour, within a general equilibrium framework. Through a simple asset pricing model with heterogeneous beliefs about future prices, I analyse three different features: the information acquisition process, the market participation choice and the financial literacy production. I check the effects of financial literacy improving policies on individual welfare. Furthermore, I provide policy implications, especially with respect to the market stability.
Questa tesi analizza l'effetto delle conoscenze finanziarie sul comportamento degli individui, all'interno di un modello di equilibrio economico generale. In particolare, la tesi affronta tre differenti aspetti: l'acquisizione di informazioni finanziarie, la partecipazione al mercato finanziario e la formazione di conoscenze finanziarie. Lo studio si concentra sulle conseguenze dell'attuazione di politiche economiche volte a migliorare le conoscenze finanziarie degli individui. Gli ambiti di interesse sono il benessere degli individui e la stabilità dei mercati finanziari.

Abstract:
While several papers have focused on the effect of financial literacy on household retirement savings or investment choices, this paper is devoted to its impact on households’ debt behavior. We utilize Slovak household finance and consumer survey (HFCS) microdata to analyze the impact of the objective level of financial literacy on Slovak households ́ debt behavior. We find that Slovak households display different debt behavior with respect to varying levels of financial literacy. We focus on high-cost credit products and find that a household ́s financial literacy does not have a statistically significant impact on the probability of having an outstanding balance of non-mortgage or credit debt. However, we find that younger households with higher incomes dispose of a higher probability of having an outstanding balance of non-mortgage or credit debt while being more credit-constrained and less able to save from their monthly income compared to more financially literate households. Thus, we may consider households with an outstanding balance of non-mortgage or credit debt to be more financially vulnerable, as they are more frequently engaging with high-cost credit products with a lower ability to save and with a higher probability of being credit constrained. This behavior may lead to a significant decrease in their ability to face unexpected internal or external adverse shocks.

Abstract:
The literature suggests that financial literacy depends on factors such as socioeconomic status/sociodemographic status, psychosocial and psychological factors, experience, and access to financial education, language skills, mathematical literacy and other factors. The aim of this study was to identify the factors that influence the financial literacy achievements of students from Latvia, focusing on the possibility to improve these achievements. The data analysis was performed with PISA 2018 Latvian data, which there were selected 25% of the participating students whose financial literacy performance was lower than the mean performance in mathematical and reading literacy and 25% of students whose financial literacy performance was considerably higher than the mean performance in mathematical literacy and reading literacy. Differences between these two groups showed factors that impact financial literacy achievements, excluding the possibility that the financial literacy performance of these students was high due to the mathematical and reading literacy. It was concluded that the financial achievements of students in Latvia are positively influenced by such factors as the socioeconomic status/sociodemographic status, psychosocial factors, and psychological factors (students with higher financial literacy achievements have a more negative attitude towards school but a more positive attitude towards life, less fear of failure and more a positive attitude towards competition, and clear plans for the future), accessibility of the financial education, time devoted to financial education, an accessible wide range of financial topics in education, experience in the financial environment, parents’ involvement, feedback from teachers in reading lessons. Keywords: Achievements of financial literacy, Financial Literacy, Mathematic literacy, OECD PISA 2018, Reading literacy.

Abstract:
Few retirees use reverse mortgages. In this paper, we investigate how financial literacy and prior knowledge of the product influence take-up by conducting a stated-preference experiment. We exogenously manipulate characteristics of reverse mortgages to tease out how consumers value them and investigate differences by financial literacy and prior knowledge of reverse mortgages. We find that those with higher financial knowledge are more likely to know about reverse mortgages, not more likely to purchase them at any cost but are more sensitive to the interest rate and the insurance value of these products in terms of the non-negative equity guarantee.
