Abstract
This brief focuses on the individual, social, and economic characteristics of youth and their families in the Ghana Experiment. Understanding these characteristics will help us examine how they influence the uptake of savings accounts and savings outcomes. Little is known about how youth and family characteristics influence saving behaviors of youth in Sub-Saharan Africa. Research in YouthSave is anticipated to fill some of these gaps.
