The country's financial improvements and economic expansion are being aided by financial literacy.

A total of 500 students from different universities of Butwal areas are participated in this study. The current study used a few characteristics to evaluate students' financial literacy, such as their knowledge of financial products, their ability to access financial goods, their knowledge of money management, their understanding of financial investment options, and their financial abilities.

The results showed that undergraduates investing decisions were favorably and significantly impacted by knowledge with financial product. Financial abilities were the most important component when it came to the many aspects of financial literacy.
