Funded Activity Summary

A Consumer Bankruptcy Project - an interdisciplinary empiric inquiry into determinants and impacts of bankruptcy upon Australian debtors. The research will enhance the wellbeing of Australian society by obtaining a better understanding of the profile of bankrupt debtors, the reasons for personal default and the impact of the regulatory framework upon all stakeholders. It will draw parallels with US trends and apply an interdisciplinary empiric method to Australian personal insolvency data. The research will lead to an informed debate around critical wider issues such as financial literacy, managing money and self-funded retirement that impact upon the physical and material health of all Australians. The project promotes the reduction of financial distress and dependence in assisting efforts to shift the risk of economic burden of an ageing population from the Commonwealth.
