Asia is a region of dynamic growth and innovation with a youthful population shaping its future. As they take on new responsibilities, these individuals are transforming the way financial planning and security are understood – balancing ambition with caution in a world of possibilities and unpredictability.

Financial Mindset of Young Adults in Asia is a survey that captures insights from over 5,000 respondents aged 20 to 35 across seven markets, revealing their views on insurance and investment.

The report highlights a generation that approaches financial readiness with purpose and aspiration, yet grounded in prudence. For them, planning – powered by digital convenience and trusted human insight – is the cornerstone of financial independence.

With this generation set to make up half of Asia-Pacific’s consumers by 2030, understanding their perspectives is key to delivering tailored solutions and tech-enabled experiences with a human touch.
