As many as 39% of people in Latvia expect the situation with their family finances to improve this year, writes LETA, according to a poll carried out by Norvik Banka.

The poll showed that 33% of Latvians expect their family finances to improve, if only a little, this year and 6% expect major improvements in their financial situation compared to 2017.

 

At the same time, 38% of Latvians think their financial situation will remain unchanged this year, and 24% think the situation with the family finances will get worse.

 

The poll also indicated that 55% of respondents are accumulating savings and 23% are determined to start saving up money in 2018.

 

In opinion of 32% of respondents, 2018 will be a good year to spend money, for example, on home improvement, household appliances and travelling, and 14%, mostly young men, think this year is a good time for investments. However, 44% admitted they did not know which was the best way to spend their money.
