Money worries are the biggest cause of stress in modern life, according to a new survey carried out by ICM Research on behalf of the Priory Group.

Almost a third of respondents cited their finances as being the cause of the most stress in their lives. Women worried more about money with 32% admitting to being stressed due to financial concerns as opposed to 26% of men questioned.

Those aged between 25 years and 44 years are most likely to worry about money with almost half of those questioned suffering stress due to money worries.
