Financial Education • 1,200,000,000 results (interchangeably with knowledge,
literacy)
• Education is a process not a product
• Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) definition
• “The process by which financial consumers improve their understanding of financial products, concepts and risks, and through information, instruction and/or advice develop the skills and confidence to become aware of risks and opportunities, to make informed decisions, know where to go for help, and to take other effective actions to improve their financial wellbeing” (OECD 2005, p. 13).

Financial education… 2
• Providing information means giving consumers access to facts and data
• Instruction involves insuring that the individual has the opportunity to acquire the skills and knowledge to understand financial terms and concepts
• Advice means providing consumers with counsel on financial issues and products so that they can make the best use (or application) of the information they have received.

Financial Literacy • Output of the process
• Skills and Knowledge. Sandra Houston (skills and knowledge are two dimensions of human capital).
• GAO: financial education + consumer behavior
• Knowledge and skills? Are they synonymous?
• Two different domains. Knowledge refers to internalized concepts and principles (cognitive domain). Skills allude to the ability to use that knowledge and to apply it in the context (the behavioral aspect of the construct).
• Financial literacy, therefore, involves knowledge about finances and the application of that knowledge (skills) to make informed financial decisions.

Financial Counseling and Planning
• Type of client
• Type of problems
• Outcomes
• Different competencies, different training for accreditation or certification
• Different but complementary professions (part of a continuum)
![Page 11: Financial Clarity: An Overview of Financial Services and ... · devising action plans). Examples of processes Figure 7.1. ... be comprehensive wealth management services to cover](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042217/5ec085ead4d8c77c91243e57/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Financial counseling Only Remedial?
• Remedial, productive and preventive. These forms “are not mutually exclusive”
• Remedial financial counseling is used when clients experience some kind of economic distress and are in need of immediate intervention.
• Productive financial counseling clients do not need to overcome immediate financial difficulties, but they do need to utilize their resources in the most productive way.
• Preventive (proactive) financial counseling has features of both remedial and productive counseling.
• The three forms of counseling use similar processes (i.e., determining needs, setting goals, establishing objectives and devising action plans).
![Page 12: Financial Clarity: An Overview of Financial Services and ... · devising action plans). Examples of processes Figure 7.1. ... be comprehensive wealth management services to cover](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042217/5ec085ead4d8c77c91243e57/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

Financial Coaching
![Page 14: Financial Clarity: An Overview of Financial Services and ... · devising action plans). Examples of processes Figure 7.1. ... be comprehensive wealth management services to cover](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042217/5ec085ead4d8c77c91243e57/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Financial coaching
• “Unlike financial education or counseling, which seeks to provide information and knowledge or help solve problems, coaching focuses on helping clients achieve their goals through performance improvements and behavior change. The goal is to support clients in developing the skills and behaviors they need in order to achieve their financial goals” (CFPB, n.d.)
![Page 15: Financial Clarity: An Overview of Financial Services and ... · devising action plans). Examples of processes Figure 7.1. ... be comprehensive wealth management services to cover](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042217/5ec085ead4d8c77c91243e57/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Financial coaching 2 • New approach to behavior change
• Post-modernism in FCS
• Mostly informed by applied coaching psychology evidence-based principles and theories: Goal theory; Hope theory, Theory of Change, Social Cognitive Theory (self-efficacy, self-regulation), Self-determination Theory, Positive Psychology, CB Theory
• Borrow approaches from mental health profession: MI, NLP, Adult Learning (andragogy), solution-focused, and humanistic approaches
![Page 16: Financial Clarity: An Overview of Financial Services and ... · devising action plans). Examples of processes Figure 7.1. ... be comprehensive wealth management services to cover](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042217/5ec085ead4d8c77c91243e57/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Because coaching …
• Is more holistic: alignment between financial goals and life goals, and values
• Brings external and internal finances
• Help clients to overcome cognitive distortions
• Provides insight and perspective: (1) changing the viewing to (2) change the doing
• (1) identifying exceptions to the problems, amplifying existing resources, building self-efficacy, problems as platforms for solutions
• (2) asking “how” instead of “why” ; using specific doable action steps, finding ways to leverage resources, accountability. Central to this notion is the skillful use of language (“soft skills”).
• Self-reflective, self evaluation and self monitoring piece (important dynamics between sessions)
