Journal Title: International Journal of Current Science Research and Review - Year 2024, Vol 7, Issue 10
Abstract
This study aims to analyze the influence of financial literacy and self-control on the saving behavior of millennial employees, as well as the moderating role of lifestyle in the relationship. Financial literacy, which includes an individual’s understanding of basic financial concepts and money management, is hypothesized to play an important role in increasing saving behavior. Self-control, an individual’s ability to resist consumer impulses and make wise financial decisions, is also considered a key factor influencing the tendency to save. However, excessive consumption behavior as part of the millennial lifestyle can potentially hinder savings efforts even though they have adequate financial literacy and self-control. In this study, lifestyle is modeled as a moderating variable that can weaken or strengthen the influence of financial literacy and self-control on saving behavior. Data collection was conducted through a survey of millennial employees from various job sectors. Data analysis used the moderated regression method to test the interaction between financial literacy, self-control, and lifestyle in influencing saving behavior. The results showed that financial literacy and self-control had a significant positive effect on saving behavior. However, lifestyle acts as a negative moderator, where a consumptive lifestyle weakens the relationship between financial literacy and self-control with saving behavior. This finding provides practical implications for individuals and companies, especially in raising awareness of the importance of lifestyle control and financial literacy to encourage better saving behavior among millennial employees.
