Most Canadians are financially literate, but many need more advice


However, there are some gaps in financial knowledge that require advice and information from wealth professionals, particularly around their savings.

The survey shows that fewer than half (44%) of Canadians feel they were equipped with the advice and tools needed to save for their future.

While 70% felt confident in being able to stick to a budget, that leaves a significant share who are not. Those aged 18-54 are less confident in their regard (63%) than over 55s (81%).

Only a slight majority of Canadians (57%) feel financially prepared to deal with a major unexpected expense.

Savings uncertainty

The younger group was also less confident in knowing how much they should save each month – 67% compared to 82% for the older group.
