Financial literacy in the Slovak Republic

Abstract

Money has become integral part of our daily life. It is practically impossible to exist without any specific level of financial knowledge and its consequential implementation. To be able to earn money, save them, protect our property, invest money, create own budget, orientate oneself on the market with financial products – this all is only part of knowledge which in these days each person should be able to dispose of for financial surviving. But what is the reality in Slovakia like? Are the people financial educated? The main aim of these papers is focused just on the answer to this question.
