Financial Industry Regulatory Authority Investor Education Foundation
Category: Education
DescriptionThe Foundation supports innovative research and educational projects that give investors the tools and information they need to better understand the markets and the basic principles of saving and investing. The Foundation’s fifth general grant program supports projects and programs that reach and actively engage at-risk audiences such as seniors and first-time investors by offering them access to unbiased information about the markets and fundamental financial issues. Of particular interest in 2009 are projects that focus on using behavioral finance to improve saving and investing, meeting the financial and investor education needs of underserved audiences, new marketing and distribution channels for financial and investor education, and helping Americans manage their finances in retirement. Applicants are asked to submit a simple, three-page project concept form. Project concept forms are accepted at any time during the year. The Foundation has set no minimum or maximum amount for the number of grants to be funded or for the amounts of the grants. Additional information is available on the Web site.
