Under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, Public Law No. 111-203, Section 1013(d), the Bureau’s Office of Financial Education is responsible for developing and implementing initiatives intended to educate and empower consumers to make better informed financial decisions. The Bureau seeks to obtain approval of a generic information collection plan to collect qualitative data on effective strategies and consumer experiences from both financial education practitioners and consumers through a variety of methods, including in-person meetings, interviews, focus groups, qualitative surveys, online discussion forums, social media polls, and other qualitative methods as necessary. The information collected through these processes will increase the Bureau’s understanding of consumers’ financial experiences, financial education and empowerment programs, and practices that can improve financial decision-making skills and outcomes for consumers. This information will also enable the Bureau to better communicate to consumers about the availability of Bureau tools and resources that consumers can use to make better informed financial decisions.
The latest form for Generic Information Collection Plan for Qualitative Consumer Education, Engagement and Experience Information Collections expires 2022-10-31 and can be found here.
