This in-person position begins in summer 2027, no later than September 1, 2027. The initial appointment is for one year and may be renewed for a second year subject to performance at or above expectations. A two-year term is strongly preferred.
The fellowship focuses on empirical research in financial literacy and household financial decision-making. Although IFDM is a relatively new initiative, its work draws on more than a decade of research in this field by the Global Financial Literacy Excellence Center (GFLEC), founded by Professor Lusardi. GFLEC has developed tools to measure financial literacy and conducted research that informs financial education programs in the United States and internationally. Over the past three years, IFDM has built on that foundation with research of its own on household financial decisions and financial education, expanding the scope of this shared research agenda.
The fellow will contribute to projects in three related areas:
• Household financial decisions: Study how financial literacy shapes saving, investing, and borrowing choices, and financial well-being outcomes, including how young adults begin investing and build wealth early in life. Projects may also examine how emerging financial products affect the allocation of savings across investments.
• Financial education programs: Evaluate the effects of financial education programs and initiatives on financial knowledge, behavior, and outcomes, including through field experiments.
• Financial education in schools and higher education: Study the availability of financial education courses and related offerings, and the factors shaping their supply and demand.
The fellow will develop academic research within this agenda and work with Professor Lusardi, IFDM’s research director and associate director, coauthors, PhD students, and other postdoctoral fellows. The role combines collaborative and independent research. The fellow will present research progress regularly to Initiative stakeholders and participate in meetings, research lunches, and colloquia. Participation in Stanford seminars and other events is encouraged.
Qualifications
Applicants must have a PhD in Economics or Finance conferred before the appointment begins. Selection will emphasize research excellence in household or personal finance or applied economics and a clear interest in IFDM’s research. Experience in household finance or program evaluation is preferred.
Application materials
For full consideration, submit the materials noted through the JOE Network at the American Economic Association. Proposals received by November 15, 2026 will receive full consideration.

Applications are invited for a post-doctoral Research Fellow position in the James M. and Cathleen D. Stone Centre on Wealth Concentration, Inequality and the Economy in the Department of Economics at University College London. This position is available for 1-2 years.
About the Stone Centre
The Stone Centre is co-directed by Professors Imran Rasul and Wendy Carlin. The Centre aims to become a global hub for research and learning that will make wealth concentration and its impacts on innovation and sustainability central to economics education. Education and research are equal partners in the venture. The Stone Centre is pairing up the CORE (Curriculum Open-access Resources in Economics) project, which is transforming economics education around the world, with the research strengths of the UCL Economics Department. The aim is to help shape the next generation of economists, bringing more attention and increasing capacity in both teaching – at all levels – and research to the causes and consequences of wealth concentration and inequality.
Research fellows will work within a team of researchers at the Stone Centre and the Department of Economics at UCL. Their direction of research expertise and interests will relate to broad aims of the Stone Centre. We seek to understand the drivers of wealth concentration, various dimensions of inequality and the interactions of these processes on political outcomes, representation and voice. Research areas in applied microeconomics, macroeconomics and empirical methods will all be considered. We will work with successful applicants to secure the best fit for their research interests and strengths and to encourage them to develop these to mutual advantage, with a particular focus on academic publication in top international journals. Research fellows are also expected to engage with the teaching innovations of the Stone Centre through its close collaboration with CORE.
We welcome applications from students expecting to complete a PhD by August 2027.
