Abstract

In this systematic review of financial literacy education programs in Romania we assess their continuity, consistency and importance. They key characteristics of such programs are analyzed based on complexity, age and size of target audience. We find that financial literacy programs in Romania tend to be recent and generally have low complexity and small target audiences. The findings may be useful for designing more effective financial education programs and developing future research on the topic.
