Focusing on Financial Literacy among University Students

Dagmar Kokavcová



Abstract

Financial knowledge has important implications for welfare and policies intended to enhance levels of financial knowledge in the population at large. Despite the rapid spread of financially complex products in the market, including loans, mortgages, credit cards, and pension accounts, many of them are difficult to master for financially unsophisticated people. The article is an assessment of a rapidly growing body of economic research on financial literacy in general, and in particular that of university students. Based on selected surveys of financial knowledge, and using results of her own research, the author evaluates financial literacy of university students. The article also provides recommendations for further financial education at universities with different professional orientations and proposes a set of recommended financial abilities and knowledge for graduates.(original abstract)
