Financial Literacy Annual Report

By Consumer Financial Protection Bureau

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Dodd-Frank Act) mandates that the Director of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB or Bureau) submit a report, no later than 24 months after the designated transfer date, and annually thereafter, on the Bureau's activities and strategy to improve the financial literacy of consumers to the Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs of the Senate, and the Committee on Financial Services of the House of Representatives. The Bureau is pleased to submit this inaugural report on the Bureau's financial literacy work. The report covers the time period from July 21, 2011, when the Bureau opened its doors, through June 15, 2013.The economic crisis that led to passage of the Dodd-Frank Act demonstrated that national financial stability can depend on the financial well-being of individuals and families. The Bureau is the nation's first federal agency focused solely on consumer financial protection. Created by the Dodd-Frank Act, the Bureau's mission is to help consumer financial markets work for American consumers, responsible providers, and the economy as a whole, - by making rules more effective;- by consistently and fairly enforcing those rules; and- by empowering consumers to take more control over their economic lives
