| Summary: | In Malaysia, awareness of financial literacy among children and youth is at a very low level. This is proven based on a survey conducted by the Malaysian Securities Commission (SC), Malaysian youth are generally unable to manage their finances well. Not only that, a study conducted by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) and Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) in 2019 found that one in three Malaysians thought they had a low level of financial knowledge. Financial literacy needs to be nurtured from an early age to help youth form the right attitude in managing their own money. Money Patrol is a multi-player financial budgeting themed board game that was innovated to a digital platform where the game application can be found on the AppStore and Playstore.
