Generation Z Turns to Financial Markets
Young Bulgarians are increasingly investing in financial markets instead of real estate, a European survey reveals.
A global fintech company conducted the survey from January to July with 1,000 respondents. The results show that 39% of Bulgarians still prefer real estate investments, while over 40% of people under 34 choose shares and exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
Financial instruments provide greater flexibility compared to property investments and require significantly smaller initial sums.
Experts attribute this shift to the rapid development of the fintech industry, which has made access to financial markets easier for young people.
