Purpose: This study aims to examine the association between parental financial socialization and life satisfaction and the mediating roles of desirable financial behavior in the association between parental financial socialization and life satisfaction of college students in India. Furthermore, this research also explores the moderating effects of parents' socioeconomic characteristics (education, income and professions) in the association between parental financial socialization and desirable financial behavior. Design/methodology/approach: A sample of 1,161 college students was collected in India. Parental financial socialization is measured by direct parental teaching in this study. The first stage moderated mediation model is performed to examine the direct and indirect effects through financial behavior of parental financial on life satisfaction as well as the moderating role of parents' socioeconomic characteristics. Findings: The mediation analysis shows that parental direct teaching is positively associated with young adults' financial behavior, which in turn contributes to their life satisfaction.
