Data analysis in this study used quantitative analysis with an analytical technique using purposive sampling. The results of this research found that the financial literacy level of Jabodetabek residents was not influenced significantly by gender, age, and family socialization agent, but was influenced significantly by education, income, experience, peers, and media financial socialization agent. Our findings indicate that individuals with higher financial literacy scores are more likely to save and hold stocks and bonds.
