Abstract

Con un sistema financiero complejo que ofrece productos cada vez más sofisticados, y la mayor facilidad para acceder a estos, los individuos pueden incurrir en prácticas financieras indeseadas que deterioran su bienestar y perturban el funcionamiento de la economía en general. Este documento analiza los niveles de alfabetización financiera en la población bancarizada de Bogotá, utilizando como fuente de información la Encuesta Colombiana de Carga y Educación Financiera (IEFIC). Los resultados evidencian que los principales determinantes de tener un mayor nivel de alfabetización financiera son el ser hombre, ser mayor de edad pero menor de 60 años, estar casado, y tener un mayor nivel educativo y de ingresos.
