Younger people are leading the way when it comes to seeking out financial advice according to a new survey.

Financial education is failing to help young people despite the vast majority wanting regular money lessons at school, according to new research.

Over four in five (82%) parents and relatives who invest in Junior ISAs have been using them to invest for children and young relatives since they were under five - but 80% will wait until their recipients are over 16 before telling them, missing an opportunity to help young people learn more about personal finance, says a provider.
