Abstract This study explores the relationship between financial literacy and investment patterns among individuals. Financial literacy, defined as the understanding of financial concepts and the ability to make informed financial decisions, plays a critical role in shaping investment behavior.Financial literacy plays a pivotal role in shaping individuals' investment behaviors and decision-making processes. Financial literacy is a critical determinant of individuals' ability to make informed investment decisions. This study examines the relationship between financial literacy and investment patterns, focusing on how financial knowledge influences investment choices, risk tolerance, and portfolio diversification. This paper aims to explore the relationship between financial literacy and investment patterns on a descriptive basis. By reviewing existing literature and analyzing empirical data, the study highlights how varying levels of financial literacy influence investment choices, risk tolerance, and portfolio diversification. The findings suggest that higher financial literacy is associated with more informed and strategic investment decisions, while lower financial literacy often leads to suboptimal financial outcomes. The paper concludes with recommendations for enhancing financial literacy to improve investment behaviors and overall financial well-being.
