Sipp provider and investment manager Rathbones is holding a series of events for 16-24 year olds to help them understand finance.
The 'Your Money, Your Future' sessions will be aimed at 16-24 year olds to provide financial education.
These aim to help young people prepare for issues such as student loans, employment, renting and buying property and investments.
The firm said the average student debt has doubled in less than a decade, youth unemployment is at record levels and it is increasingly hard to get on the property ladder.
"Financial education is a crucial part of equipping young people with the necessary tools to have a successful financial future, however, it is often an area that is neglected or not included in the academic calendar, " said Rathbones.

Key areas covered include budgeting, savings, asset classes, risk and investment decision, companies and careers guidance.
Events are held at Rathbones offices and can also be held in schools. Upcoming events take place in Chichester, London, Bristol, Liverpool, Winchester and Newcastle.
Earlier this year it was announced by Prime Minster David Cameron that schools would have to offer compulsory financial education for Key Stage 3-4 pupils from September 2014.
A curriculum is currently in the process of being written by the Department for Education and the Personal Financial Education Group (pfeg).
