Study of Financial Literacy and investment Behaviour among youth in urban nepal

Abstract

Financial literacy is an essential competency in contemporary intricate financial frameworks, affecting the way people save, spend, borrow, and buy. In the case of urban young people in Nepal, increasing the exposure to online banking and investment websites generates opportunities, as well as threats. This paper discusses the correlation between financial literacy and the investment behaviour among the urban youth in Nepal. It targets their demographics, financial attitudes, their investment decisions and their financial information sources. The results are expected to demonstrate the influence of financial literacy on investment behaviour and to give indications on policies and interventions to support financial inclusion and financial resiliency.
