Financial well-being: Call for papers

The CFPB has established a definition of financial well-being, created a scale to measure it, and researched what can influence it.

We are now building on this body of work through a new research funding opportunity. Through this call for applications, three awardees will be given $45,000 to conduct original research using the CFPB’s Financial Well-Being Scale.

We are seeking to fund research that enhances understanding of:

• The relationship between financial well-being and customer service experiences with financial institutions
• The relationship between financial well-being and economic mobility
• The state of, and factors associated with, the financial well-being of immigrant communities

Please look over our requirements for submissions, including factors to be considered in evaluating proposals and details about timing.
