To prove it to the Federal Service for Financial Markets interviewed 2,899 respondents. Your level of financial literacy as "average" 53.1% of respondents identified "low" level of 17,6%. To "high" level of financial knowledge is only one seventh of citizens - 14,7%. Positive feature is that 58% of people still want to increase the volume of their economic knowledge.
