Early financial education for the benefit of youth. [Newspaper] (2021)
Abstract
EVER since the pandemic has taken a toll on the world economy, talks about financial literacy have been going around more frequently, given the challenging situation involving livelihoods and the critical need for people to have sufficient savings to survive rainy days. This particularly points at youths, who have become more vulnerable economically, and more concerning is their low level of financial literacy. Hence, this calls for practical action plan, and it needs to start from the core foundation of the society – education. A study conducted by the Organisation of Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) on 26 countries, including Malaysia, has shown that overall, financial literacy is already at its low.
