消费者银行和支付的状态报告:H2 2022
Report Summary
Consumers have weathered half a year of historic inflation. It’s wearing on their financial
well-being, slowing their progress toward their goals and beginning to impact their interactions with financial services providers.
Key Takeaways
-
Across the board, consumers are worse off than last year: No group is immune to the economic effects of inflation and the pandemic, even high-earning households and older adults.
-
Banking relationships are stable, but there’s room for improvement: Consumers are content with their providers and aren’t thinking of switching, but 1 in 5 U.S. adults are unbanked or underbanked.
-
Digital wallet dominance continues: Consumers continue to rely on—and trust—digital wallets and the tech providers that offer them, threatening traditional provider relationships.
-
Consumers have put their investing goals on hold: Consumers are making less progress toward their investing goals, and many are ending relationships with robo-advisers and brokerages amid broad market volatility.
-
Cryptocurrency owners are staying the course: Despite a tumultuous few months, retail investors are continuing to buy and hold cryptocurrency.
