Q.1 What is financial literacy?
Ans. Financial literacy is the ability to understand
and effectively use various financial skills,
including personal financial
management, budgeting, and investing. The
meaning of financial literacy is the foundation
of your relationship with money, and it is a
lifelong journey of learning. The earlier you
start, the better off you will be because
education is the key to success when it comes
to money.
Financial literacy also requires the experience
of financial principles and concepts, such as
financial planning, compound
interest, debt management,
efficient investment strategies, and money-
time value. Financial illiteracy can lead to poor
financial choices which can have negative
effects on an individual's financial well-being.
The key steps to improve financial
literacy include: - Learning the skills to create
a budget - Ability to track expenses - Learning
the strategies to pay off debt - Planning for
retirement effectively
Such measures can also include financial
specialist counselling. Educating about
finances involves understanding how money
works, developing and achieving financial
goals, and handling internal and external
financial challenges.
Q.2 WHY DO WE NEED FINANCIAL
LITERACY?
Ans. Financial literacy is defined by five broad
principles. While other models may list different key
components, the overarching goal of financial
literacy is to teach people how to earn, spend, save,
borrow, and protect their money. Financial literacy
focuses on the capacity to properly manage one’s
personal finances, which necessitates experience in
making sensible financial decisions including
savings, insurance, real estate, college payments,
budgeting, retirement, and tax preparation.
• People that are financially literate are better
prepared for emergencies. People can prepare
for the unpredictable by learning about
financial literacy issues like saving or
emergency planning. Despite the fact that
facing a financial emergency like losing a job
or incurring a sizable unforeseen bill is always
difficult, one can lessen the impact by
practising financial literacy beforehand and
being prepared for anything.
• A person’s goals may be more easily attained
with financial literacy. People can make plans
that set expectations, keep them accountable for
their finances, and chart a road for
accomplishing goals that first appear
unattainable by improving their grasp of how to
budget and save money. Even if a person’s
ambition cannot be realised right away due to
financial constraints, they can always devise a
plan to improve their chances.
• Financial literacy inspires confidence. Consider
making a life-altering decision without all of
the necessary information. Individuals with
adequate financial knowledge can approach
major life decisions with greater confidence,
knowing that they are less likely to be surprised
or negatively impacted by unforeseen
outcomes.
