Financial well-being means having financial security and freedom of choice, both now and into the future. Research on the state of financial well-being in the United States and what drives it is now available for the first time. In this session, speakers will present groundbreaking research on financial well-being, including a high-level snapshot, a detailed exploration of the factors that impact financial well-being and an analysis of how it evolves over time in a low-income population. We will also discuss how practitioners can use this research to measure the financial well-being of their participants in order to enhance their programs and initiatives.
