Three out of four Romanians declare they are a little or not at all financially prepared, whih has impact on future financial prospects, according to a study made by BrandNarry and supported by the Romanian Commercial Bank, on the occasion of the World Savings Day. Moreover, the result analysis of financial education tests indicate not only a low level of knowing financial banking and economic concepts and terms, but also a low capacity of making simple mathematic calculations. 77% of participants did not exceed 50% of correct answers, while only 3.5% of respondents had a correct answer rate higher than 75%. The study pointed out that 40% of participants are not financially resilient and would not be able to ensure the same living standard as now, not even for a month in case, in an unhappy situation, they would be left without an income source. Only one out of five Romanians estimate they could preserve their present living standard for more than 6 months. The degree of financial literacy in Romania is only 8%, the lowest percentage in Europe. Over 50% of Romanians consider they are facing financial difficulties in everyday life. As for financial inclusion, most participants in the study declared they held and used a bank account (80.7%), a debit card (70%) and used online banking (70%). The survey revealed differences between gender groups concerning money. The report shows that women tend to concentrate on money handling practices, while men associate money to freedom and well being. These differences show the need for a more nuanced approach in public policies and in financial education programs which shouod take into account needs and promote a healthy and balanced relation with money for everybody.
