Work With Us
At the Center for Research in Consumer Financial Decision Making (CFDM), we believe that collaboration between academia and industry is essential for advancing our understanding of consumer financial behavior and developing innovative solutions to real-world challenges. We invite companies interested in engaging in research to partner with us and explore the many opportunities for collaboration.
One of the most fruitful ways to collaborate with CFDM is through research partnerships. By sharing data with our team of expert researchers, companies can gain valuable insights into consumer financial decision-making while contributing to the creation of cutting-edge academic research. We understand that data confidentiality is paramount, and we work closely with our partners to ensure that their data is handled securely and responsibly. Partners can choose whether to be named in the resulting academic articles or to remain anonymous.
Another effective way to engage with CFDM is by organizing a collaborative workshop. These workshops bring together researchers, industry professionals, and other stakeholders to brainstorm ideas, discuss challenges, and identify potential research projects. By combining the expertise of academics and practitioners, these workshops can generate innovative solutions and lay the foundation for long-term research partnerships.
In addition to research partnerships and collaborative workshops, faculty affiliated with CFDM may also be available for consulting services to companies seeking expert guidance on consumer financial decision-making. Our team of experienced researchers can provide insights, analysis, and recommendations tailored to your company's specific needs and goals. Whether you're looking to improve your products, services, or customer engagement strategies, we can help you leverage the latest research to make data-driven decisions.
At CFDM, we have a strong track record of successful collaborations with companies across various industries. Our experience in navigating these partnerships ensures that we can effectively manage projects, maintain data security, and deliver high-quality results. We understand the unique challenges and opportunities that arise when working at the intersection of academia and industry, and we are committed to fostering productive, mutually beneficial relationships with our partners.
If your company is interested in collaborating with CFDM or learning more about our research partnerships, collaborative workshops, or consulting services, we'd love to hear from you. Please contact Joe Gladstone or Asaf Bernstein, the two co-directors of the center, to discuss how we can work together to advance our understanding of consumer financial decision-making and drive positive change in the industry.
