Stanford’s Initiative for Financial Decision-Making synthesizes research, education, technology, policy, and programs to democratize access to financial education and develop the field of personal finance for long-lasting impact.
We envision a world in which people are empowered to make informed financial decisions to achieve financial freedom.
IFDM is a collaboration among Stanford GSB, the Stanford Institute for Economic Policy Research (SIEPR), and Stanford Department of Economics. The initiative aims to promote sound personal finance decisions, beginning with Stanford students and alumni, then extending programs to colleges and universities throughout the U.S. and ultimately across the globe.
