Early money guidance at home and school important

A nationwide Financial Literacy Score Index, commissioned by Bank of Ireland and conducted by Red C, suggests that early guidance on money at home and in school may contribute to stronger financial confidence in adulthood.

Ireland’s average financial literacy score is 54% – with just over half of questions answered correctly – according to the survey.
