In December 2019, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) will host its fourth research conference on consumer finance at Catholic University in Washington, DC. Information on prior conferences can be found here: https://www.consumerfinance.gov/data-research/cfpb-research-conference/
We encourage the submission of a variety of research. This includes, but is not limited to, work on: the ways consumers and household make decisions about borrowing, saving, and financial risk-taking; how various forms of credit (mortgage, student loans, credit cards, installment loans, etc.) affect household well-being; how salience of product fees and terms affect saving and borrowing; the structure and functioning of consumer financial markets; distinct and underserved populations; and relevant innovations in modeling or data, including the use of alternative data.
A deliberate aim of the conference is to connect the core community of consumer finance researchers and policymakers with the best research being conducted across the wide range of disciplines and approaches that can inform the topic. Disciplines from which we hope to receive submissions include, but are not limited to, economics, law and economics, and cognitive sciences.
