The importance of savings in providing the financial well-being of an individual (a household) is unquestionable. Spending less money than one earns and saving for the future is a valuable rule and a good habit enabling one control personal finances. However, in real life circumstances, it does not always prove to be easy — people are often unable to gather incomes and/or rationally save. Conscious saving requires proper financial knowledge and skills, which are focused on making conscious and rational financial decisions and lead to effective financial behaviour, including in the field of saving. The quality of financial behaviour is determined by numerous factors, the special importance among which is attributed to incomes and the level of own knowledge and financial skills as well as individual traits of particular financial consumers are essential. The aim of this article is to study the level of basic financial knowledge and skills as well as fundamental behaviour in the field of saving among young people with Autism spectrum and Asperger syndrome.
