Building a Financially Capable America Through Education and Research

The FINRA Investor Education Foundation, FINRA’s Office of the Chief Economist, and NORC at the University of Chicago have issued a call for papers on diversity, equity, and inclusion in the capital markets. Submissions are due August 2 for a convening to be held on October 22, 2021.

Using data from the ongoing National Financial Capability Study, these research studies explore different elements of financial capability, including the financial knowledge, resources and habits of Americans.

These research studies examine factors that contribute to fraud victimization and scam susceptibility as well as interventions and preventative measures aimed at protecting consumers.
