According to a 2017 PISA study, the United States ranks 14th in financial literacy among 15-year-olds, trailing behind countries like China, Estonia, and Canada.
Only 1 in 10 U.S. students excel in financial literacy.
Major gaps exist based on socioeconomic status and access to financial education.
