C1c The Role of Consumer Financial Confidence on Financial Well-Being
Key Words
Financial confidence, financial well-being, financial capability, consumer finance
Short Description
This study investigates the relationship between financial confidence and financial well-being (FWB). Financial confidence is measured by the interplay between respondents’ estimation of their own financial knowledge (subjective financial knowledge) and actual survey scores from financial knowledge questions (objective financial knowledge). This study helps reveal the building blocks needed to generate a more comprehensive understanding of financial confidence and its relationship with financial well-being. Results also have implications for practitioners in financial education and services. When creating financial education programs and interventions, educators and advisors will have a better understanding of not just their clients’ different levels of financial well-being, but also how to solve mismatches between objective and subjective financial knowledge. The knowledge gained from this study may help program designers to better balance elements of knowledge acquisition and elements to foster financial confidence to deliver more effective consumer finance interventions.
