Financial literacy as knowledge necessary in today's globalized world

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The current globalized world requires individuals to take responsibility for their decisions. Therefore, it is necessary that the younger generation reach a certain level of knowledge, including knowledge of financial literacy. Financial literacy covers an important area - security in old age. The aim of this paper is to assess the level of financial literacy amongst university students, with a focus on income security in old age. Primary data were obtained by quantitative research using a questionnaire survey (n = 1 437) in 2018 amongst full-time bachelors and masters degree students at three universities. The selected universities focus on economy and agriculture and each of them is located in a different region of the Czech Republic. The results show that 47.8% of respondents worry about their income security in old age. As a way of financing the retirement, most of the respondents chose the option &quot;from the state pension and in another way&quot;. Statistical evaluation proved dependence between the gender of respondents and the responses mentioned above. Women more often chose the &quot;from state pension and in another way&quot; option than men. On the other hand, men chose the &quot;in another way&quot; option more often. It follows that men do not want to be dependent on the state, but they want to secure themselves in another way.
