Why young people are struggling with financial wellbeing - a story with data | Anna Perera Shaw

Published on: 7th February, 2022

Anna Perera-Shaw is a researcher and Consumer Credit, Deposits & Payments Director at RFI Global - In this episode she takes us through her insights and we look deeper into financial wellbeing...



There are some shocking numbers and it is critical we all raise more awareness among the youth.

The problem is universal - and it is in each of us to educate each other and make better decisions


Our conversation, of course, is about financial well being and how it's affecting us - but ifrom the lens of a researcher rather than just like, our random facts. 


In Australia, but also globally, you can see, especially with younger people, women and people who don't speak English, a lot of these financial products not really meet the needs of everyone, which means they're all these people who are left out... and this is so important -- When our finances are good life is fine when it's not going well, it's really becomes this massive burden.
