The National Endowment for Financial Education® (NEFE), with planning assistance from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and other key stakeholders, hosted a forum discussing Diminished Capacity and its implications on personal financial decision making, Sept. 10-11, 2012 in Washington, D.C. The discussion, which began with a salon in September 2011, focused, in more detail, on the role of gaining a better understanding of what is needed in support systems and advance planning. The goal of the forum was to assess immediate needs and define a set of questions and concepts that will clarify areas for additional research and exploration.
