The Influence of Financial Literacy, Perception of Capital Capability, Return Expectation and Family Environment on the Intention to Invest in Shares of Students in the Capital Market

One of the most popular financial products among Indonesians, according to a survey by the Financial Services Authority (OJK), is capital market investment. The number of investors in the capital market has increased year by year, yet the growth rate is lowest in the stock sector. This study aims to examine the influence of financial literacy, perceptions of minimal capital, return expectations, and family environment on students' intention to invest in stocks in the capital market, based on the theory of planned behavior. This research employs a quantitative approach. The study was conducted on undergraduate accounting students at the Faculty of Economics and Business, Udayana University, from the year 2017-2023.

The sample was selected using probability sampling with proportionate stratified random sampling, resulting in 300 respondents. Data analysis techniques included descriptive statistical techniques and multiple linear regression analysis using SPSS 25.0. The results of this study indicate that financial literacy, perceptions of minimal capital, return expectations, and family environment have a positive effect on students' intention to invest in stocks.
