More information

We have now recruited over 8,000 young people aged 11-18 from across the UK to join the MoneySense panel.

Members of the panel will complete several quick online surveys each year. Their views about money and their future plans will help us to explore:

• how young people spend and manage their money
• the importance of saving
• opinions on borrowing money
• knowledge of budgeting
• confidence in dealing with financial organisations
• hopes and aspirations for independent living,
  earnings
• the financial decisions they may have to make in the future

In return they have the chance to have their say and influence how financial topics are taught in schools, making sure they're relevant and give them all the information they'll need when they leave school.

Registration to join the panel is now closed. We completed one survey in late 2007, and results were published in early 2008. We are currently conducting the second year’s survey (between September and December 2008). These results will be published in early 2009.

The MoneySense panel is part of the MoneySense programme.
