Wealth and financial well-being
Financially secure families can effectively manage their daily finances, bounce back from economic shocks, and build and protect their wealth. Urban examines the barriers to achieving financial stability, delivers data and analysis on wealth inequality, and offers insights on strategies to help families become more economically resilient. Financial institutions, lawmakers, and mission-driven companies and nonprofits rely on Urban’s research to shape a more inclusive economy, where everyone has the chance to build wealth and enjoy financial security.
