Quantitative methods improve precision and accuracy. The researcher also used a cross-sectional design to correlate study variables. Purposive sampling chose 400 responses. A pre-made questionnaire is usually utilized for data collection. SPSS 26 and Stata 15 are used for statistical analysis. Financial literacy is beneficial to financial fragility. Financial fragility suffers greatly from financial confidence. Wealth boosts FR significantly. Race does not affect FR. The results show a favorable association between FR and wealthfinancial literacy. However, financial literacy and race interact significantly on FR. According to the results, financial fragility may be decreased by combining financial knowledge with financial confidence. 2024-01-12T10:29:18Z 2024-01-12T10:29:18Z 2023 Thesis https://ir.knust.edu.gh/handle/123456789/15077 en application/pdf KNUST |
