Youth and young adults today lack clear and accessible financial tools to understand and manage their money responsibly. In an era where they are constantly exposed to advertising and a culture of instant consumption, it is challenging for them to develop saving habits and avoid unnecessary expenses.
They struggle to grasp the importance of long-term savings and tend to focus mainly on immediate spending, which can lead to a loss of financial control. Additionally, complex financial information is often not accessible or easy to understand for them, and existing financial apps do not always communicate in their language or offer engaging and useful experiences.
This issue prevents them from developing healthy financial habits, which could significantly impact their financial future.
