Financial education is an aspect that has acquired great importance in the economic development of countries, and its inclusion in basic and secondary education programs can bring benefits to the society and the economy of a country. This being the case, the financial education should not be an option but a necessary condition in the training processes, even more because we are facing generations that think in a different way, whose priorities have changed compared to those of previous generations. The measurement of the level of competences in finance has acquired such importance that different organizations such as S&P or the OECD have developed instruments for this purpose. Colombia shows a low level of development in these measurements, a fact that justifies this research with which it is sought to establish the real level of basic knowledge in finance on the part of students who are about to graduate from high scholl and enroll higher education or be integrated into the labor world, in the municipalities of Chía and Sopó, near Bogotá, capital of Colombia. |
