In charge of supporting employee mental wellbeing? It pays to look after employee financial wellbeing too. Here's why.
Key findings include:
- The more financially confident you are, the better your mental wellbeing is likely to be
- We feel financial loss more than we appreciate financial gain
- A high income is no protection against poor mental wellbeing
- Many UK adults don’t have a good understanding of basic financial principles. For example, 64% don’t understand the impact of inflation on their money
- The UK lags behind other countries when it comes to financial literacy levels (our average scores are 12% lower than France)
