It's a New World: How Generation Z Views Investing and the Financial Markets

EasyChair Preprint 7140

Abstract

A large number of research studies have been published on generational differences on a variety of topics. However, one topic that has not been significantly studied is the difference between Generation Z versus the other generations in investing their money. This includes their willingness to invest money in traditional stocks and funds, but also newer financial products like cryptocurrencies. In addition, little research has been done to analyze Generation Z's financial interests including their desire to invest at a young age, the level of risk they are willing to take and how corporate social responsibility influences the way they look at stocks. This study will focus on young adults' benefits and risks of investing their money in stocks or cryptos in a very early stage of life.

Keyphrases: Cryptocurrency, Generation Z, Investing, money, stock market
