Credit, saving and insurance practices influencing satisfaction with preparation for financial emergencies among rural households
Article Abstract:
A study on family financial management showed that satisfaction with preparation for financial emergencies was positively affected by household managerial behaviour. One suchimportant managerial behavior is regular saving wherein the greater amount of savings elicited greater satisfaction. Age and monthly salary were the major predictors of the managerial behavior index and monthly debt payment. Such findings would prove useful to educators, financial counsellors and financial institutions to help raise the satisfaction level of consumers with domestic finances.
