In this paper, we examined the level of financial literacy among young people in the Split area. The study also investigates the sources from which participants acquired their financial education, as well as their attitudes towards money and the relationship between these attitudes and financial literacy. The research was conducted in July 2024 using an online survey method, with a convenience sample of 203 participants aged 18 to 29. Bearing in mind the small and non-representative nature of the sample, the following conclusions can be drawn. The data analysis indicates that, on average, participants possess a moderate level of financial literacy. It is also worth noting that 10% of participants did not answer any financial literacy questions correctly. The primary source of financial literacy was found to be family, followed by the internet and friends. Formal education from schools/universities and financial institutions, such as the Croatian National Bank and other government entities, were the least cited sources of financial knowledge. Although there was no statistically significant difference in financial literacy based on age, results showed that participants who consider money important and influential in their lives tend to have a higher level of financial literacy. Additionally, participants with lower levels of financial literacy perceive themselves as having a limited ability to earn money. In conclusion, while participants generally demonstrated an average level of financial literacy, there remains significant room for improvement. A considerable number of participants answered incorrectly or were unsure about fundamental concepts such as inflation and interest rates. Furthermore, attitudes towards money influence both current and potential future levels of financial literacy, shaping financial behavior.
