Abstract

This research focuses on the financial literacy level, stock participation,and financial behavior among millennials in Indonesia. Logit regression analysis is performed to analyze the relationship among tested variables. The weighted percentage analysis is also used to portray a response in relation to the sample of respondents. Such an analysis is widely used in Indonesia. Findings suggest that for basic and advanced financial literacy level topics, millennials with higher education level and profession related to economy are the ones who have high basic financial literacy level. However, as respondents become older and/or get married, the basic financial literacy level tends to decrease. When the questions are advanced, the education level is statistically significant. If they have more available money to spend than others, then they tend to have a higher advanced financial literacy level. However, the advanced financial literacy level of female respondents who are older and/or have children tends to decrease. Subsequently, the relationship between financial literacy level and stock market participation is evident when millennials have a high basic and/or advanced financial literacy level, suggesting that they tend to participate in the stock market. Overconfident millennials or those who focus on learning economics also likely participate in the stock market.
