Orientação financeira: uma análise do impacto em acadêmicos do curso de ciências contábeis

Abstract

Education and financial control are important for ensuring the financial well-being of individuals and families. Financial education enables people to acquire knowledge on how to manage their money, make informed investments, and avoid excessive debt. Understanding concepts such as budgeting, saving, and investing helps individuals achieve both short-term and long-term goals. The lack of adequate financial knowledge can negatively impact a person's financial life, especially among students who, despite being in fields related to finance, still face challenges in managing their personal finances. the study in question aims to address the impact that financial guidance can have on the lives of students in the accounting sciences program at ufgd. The extension project "educafinanp" provided this financial guidance as an effort to improve the participants' situation. Based on data collection and quantitative analysis of the responses, it is demonstrated that there was an improvement in financial control habits, a reduction in debt, and an increase in investments among participants after the educational intervention.
