I will keep this reference in mind if I choose a population based on income, age or gender. I found it especially interesting that high schoolers in China outperformed every other country by a landslide. This study asked the same three basic financial questions in many different countries and sorted how many respondents could answer all three correctly. I thought it was interesting that across the board, men had more confidence than women, whether they were right or not. Although Huntington is a regional bank, making this project focused on mostly American users, it may be beneficial to understand how other countries are dealing with financial literacy, or cross-referencing how their cultures and ours are making or filling gaps.
