The financial attitude possessed by individuals can be realized because of literacy or knowledge. Meanwhile, the current level of working-age literacy in Semarang City needs to be improved. This background can be seen in the widespread use of credit cards, excessive consumption activities, and the low level of public knowledge about financial institutions and financial products and services. To inhibit this desire, a high locus of control is needed in the individual. This study aims to determine the influence and relationship between financial attitudes, financial literacy, and locus of control on financial management behavior at working-age in Semarang City. The research method used is the quantitative method with multiple regression analysis. The data collection technique was by distributing questionnaires to four hundred productive age groups in the city of Semarang. The results of this study showed that there was an influence between financial attitudes and financial literacy on partial financial behavior management based on hypothesis testing (t-test), but there is no influence between the locus of control on financial management behavior partially.

This study aims to determine the level of financial literacy among the millennial generation and to examine the correlation of their financial knowledge, financial attitude, and financial skills with their financial behavior. Multiple choice questions were used to measure financial knowledge with results grouped into three categories: low, moderate, and high. Financial attitude, financial skills, and financial behavior were also grouped using the quartile method into three categories: poor, fair, and good. Chi-squared analysis was used to test the hypotheses, with correspondence analysis conducted to identify the characteristics of the millennial generation and to graphically illustrate the gap. Regarding financial attitude, financial skills, and financial behavior, the proportions of respondents in the 'fair' category, were 70.6%, 66.5%, and 72.2%, respectively. Significant relationships were found not only between financial attitude and financial management behavior, but also between financial skills and financial management behavior. However, the relationship was not significant between financial knowledge and financial behavior.
