Abstract

This study explores the role of financial literacy and ethical values in controlling impulsive buying behavior among Generation Z, especially in the context of digital platforms. This study uses a qualitative method with Thematic Analysis to examine how these two factors affect self-control in financial decision-making. Data were collected through interviews with Generation Z respondents, which showed that strong ethical values, instilled through religious teachings and cultural culture built into the family, significantly increased self-control, even when financial literacy was limited. These findings suggest that when ethical values are combined with good financial literacy, self-control becomes increasingly strong, allowing individuals to avoid impulsive buying and make more informed financial decisions. The study also recommends the application of Imam Shafi'i's principles in prioritizing the most important and urgent needs, which translates into the "Eisenhower Matrix" method, as an effective strategy for managing impulsive buying behavior. Although this study has some limitations, such as a small sample size and a focus on a single region, these findings provide important insights for efforts to control consumptive behavior among Generation Z.
