Nearly 4 in 10 (37 per cent) of Brits say they weren’t financially prepared for the Coronavirus pandemic.
Nearly a quarter (23 per cent) needed to turn to alternative methods for financial support, and a fifth of those needed to borrow between £5,000 and £30,000.
A third admit that the pandemic has made them think about their finances more seriously, with 37 per cent now likely to revamp their finances.
But over half (51 per cent) managed to save money.
