Also, to examine the moderating role of GP on the relationship between FSE, RGC, and FPR. Primary data was gathered during the COVID-19 pandemic from mid-July 2020 until the end of January 2021 using a non-probability convenience sampling approach involving 525 respondents. The data were analyzed using the Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) technique. The Confirmatory Tetrad Analysis method (CTA-PLS) is used to determine the formative/reflective type of study variables. The results directly show the significant impact of the FSE, RGC, and GP on FPR. Indirectly, for those with a clear retirement goal, the perceived GP moderates its relationship with FPR. Previous research has examined FSE and RGC in FPR without considering the effect of GP.

This paper aims to give researchers clarity and confidence on financial planning for retirement (FPR) by incorporating diverse perspectives, including theories, methodologies, and determinants of FPR. Given the importance of conceptual models to test hypotheses and predict information in a scientific study, the literature illustrated a dearth of model adoptions in examining the determinants that shape individuals’ perceptions of FPR behaviours. This paper highlights the pertinent gaps in the literature regarding the significant outcomes of empirical and theoretical contributions that relate to cognitive, psychological, and external variables influencing FPR. This review consists of two steps. The first step contains database searches, whereas the second step retrieves and screens all pertinent articles extensively covered over nearly 20 years between 2000–2019. In addition, ...

Rising long-life expectancy may jeopardize employees’ pensions and reduce the chances of adequate earnings and a decent life after retirement. Moreover, the number of employees, who have paid into pension funds and are now retired, has increased, indicating that pension funds are expected to decrease. Apart from the above, the level of financial literacy in Saudi Arabia was substandard. Therefore, the ultimate objective of this research is to examine the measurable factors that could impact employees in their financial planning for retirement (FPR). These factors comprise the employee’s financial literacy (FL), financial risk tolerance (FRT), and cultural factors based on the CWO model. Moreover, this study aims to investigate the mediating roles of culture in their relationship with financial planning for retirement. Primary data was collected during the COVID-19 pandemic from mid-July 20...
