The finding shows the introduction of financial literacy at an early level for the student is necessary. There is a need to reform the institutional structures to improve the capabilities of high school students and strategies that are needed to initiate financial literacy educational growth in developing areas. Additionally, due to high ratio of unemployment, they are unable to have financial experiences that affect their financial knowledge and behavior. Increasingly in the region, they have a very little approach to grow.
