Overview
Abstract
The FinScope survey provides a holistic understanding of how individuals generate an income and how they manage their financial lives. It identifies the factors that drive financial behaviour and those that prevent individuals from using financial products and services. Implementing the FinScope survey over time provides the opportunity to assess whether, and how, a country's situation changes.
This survey covers all areas of financial interest that look at quality of life, poverty, attitudes towards and usage of financial products, as well as measuring levels of financial literacy.
