<![CDATA[Financial literacy is critical to enhancing the financial well-being of individuals and families, yet a strong understanding alone does not guarantee effective financial decision-making. Financial consultants are key in bridging the gap between knowledge and action. This study analyzes recent trends in financial consultant services and financial literacy using a PRISMA-based systematic review method.

Results reveal that individuals with high financial literacy are more likely to seek professional advice, while those with low literacy levels remain hesitant.

This research contributes to the scientific field by highlighting the interplay between financial literacy, advisory services, and technology, offering a pathway to more inclusive financial well-being.]]>
