This difference could lead to unstable finances and compromise long-term security. Putting in place structured financial literacy initiatives fit for this group might greatly improve financial performance. Therefore, the aimed to assess the financial management practices and financial behavior among young professionals of business process outsourcing companies in China. The challenges encountered were also analyzed towards an intervention plan proposal. The study reveals that young professionals in BPO companies generally have a positive view of financial management, but their authority over decisions varies. Financial conduct is influenced by peer influence and societal expectations, and they exhibit varied financial behaviors in budgeting, saving, and long-term planning. However, they face challenges like limited understanding, lifestyle inflation, and balancing short-term and long-term goals.
