Abstract

This study aims to determine the behavior of individuals in making family investment decisions in terms of personal income and financial literacy as well as demographic factors in the Tasikmalaya community. Primary data were collected through the distribution of questionnaires with snowball sampling technique and as many as 247 samples were collected during the period March-May 2021. The data were analyzed by crosstabs analysis and multiple regression analysis. The results of the descriptive analysis showed that the people in Tasikmalaya were more likely to choose to invest in moderate-risk assets, with a high level of financial literacy. The results of the crosstabs analysis showed that there was no significant difference in determining the choice of investment type, between women and men in the Tasikmalaya community. However, analyzed from other demographic items, namely education, marital status, occupation, income, and age, there were significant differences in determining the choice of investment type. The results of the multiple regression test showed that personal income and financial literacy simultaneously had a positive and significant effect on investment decisions for people in Tasikmalaya. The results showed that personal income partially had a significant effect on investment decisions for the community in Tasikmalaya, but partially a financial literacy did not have a significant effect on investment decisions for the community in Tasikmalaya. This implies that, in determining the choice of investment type, the people of Tasikmalaya considered the amount of income more than using an understanding of financial literacy.
