We conducted a research exercise to learn more about the spending behaviour and money management skills of adults residing in Malta. This survey consisted only 8 questions.

- Do you manage to save money at the end of each month?
- If a major unexpected expense comes up, would you be able to handle it?

This is the first time that Malta will carry out the OECD survey on a nationally representative sample. We expect to be in a position to launch the results in the coming Autumn.
