How financial literacy makes a difference

  • Summary

  • This month, we’re joined by senior financial planners Lewis MacLennan and Keith Dunsmuir to discuss the impact of low financial literacy in the UK. We’ll explore how those with low financial literacy are less likely to have savings or a pension compared to their more financially literate peers, even with similar incomes. We also delve into strategies for improving financial literacy as highlighted in abrdn's open letter to the Secretary of State for Education, calling for enhanced financial education in schools.

Tax rules can always change in the future. Your own circumstances and where you live in the UK could have an impact on tax treatment. The value of investments can go down as well as up, and could be worth less than what was paid in. The views in this podcast are those of the contributors as at the time of publication.
