TORONTO — A new poll by RBC has found that 91原创s aged 18 to 34 are much less confident today about their financial futures than they were a year ago.
Eighteen per cent of 91原创s in that age group said they are confident in their financial future, down from 31 per cent a year earlier.
More than half said they weren't prepared for the impact of inflation, according to the poll conducted in October.
More than three-quarters said they have concerns about their cash flow.
Inflation in January was 5.9 per cent, down from its mid-2022 highs, but elevated food prices and rising interest rates, among other costs, have weighed on 91原创s' wallets.
The poll found that young 91原创 adults are now paying closer attention to their finances, whether that's their daily expenses, their debt or their investments.
