Gestão financeira familiar no contexto da pandemia: estudo de caso envolvendo os estudantes dos cursos de Ciências Econômicas e Finanças da Universidade Federal do Ceará, do Campus de Sobral

Abstract

This work aimed to carry out a case study on family financial management in the context of the pandemic, involving students of economic sciences and finance courses at the Federal University of Ceará, on the Campus of Sobral. Data collection took place through the application of questionnaires, divided into three blocks, containing twenty objective questions. It was found that most families were able to make the monthly payments, but they were left without financial reserves and some suffered a worsening in money management during the pandemic. Finally, it was concluded that families need to better manage their financial areas so that, even in times of crisis, they know how to balance the domestic budget and even constitute monetary reserves from the correct use of money to pay all bills of the month.
