transitioning veterans and economically
vulnerable consumers nationwide. Over
three years, it is estimated that tens of
thousands of consumers will be served.
In order for CFPB to understand
whether the program is effective and for
the financial coaches to be able to
deliver efficient services and track
clients over time, CFPB will need to
take steps to monitor program
performance and to evaluate the
program. This will ultimately include a
process evaluation to examine program
implementation and an outcomes
evaluation to examine program effects
on clients. Performance monitoring and
the process and outcome evaluations
will involve three key data collection
efforts: administrative data collected
about clients by financial coaches for
programmatic purposes; interview data
collected by evaluators from key
informants such as coaching clients,
financial coaches and program
administrators; and self-reported survey
data from coaches and coaching clients.
The information to be collected from
clients will include a combination of
personal information (basic contact and
demographic information), performance
metrics (outputs), client-level outcomes
(progress towards financial goals or
other relevant outcomes) and
programmatic and organizational
outcomes. The current information
collection request is specifically for the
administrative data that will be
collected by coaches from financial
coaching clients for programmatic and
performance monitoring purposes.
Additional requests will be submitted at
a later date for the process and
outcomes components of the evaluation.
Request for Comments: The Bureau
issued a 60-day Federal Register notice
on September 4, 2014 (79 FR 52638).
Comments were solicited and continue
to be invited on: (a) Whether the
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the Bureau, including
whether the information will have
practical utility; (b) The accuracy of the
Bureau’s estimate of the burden of the
collection of information, including the
validity of the methods and the
assumptions used; (c) Ways to enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (d)
Ways to minimize the burden of the
collection of information on
respondents, including through the use
of automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
