The What Works Fund

Tender description

In 2016/17 the Money Advice Service aims to contribute up to £7m to fund and evaluate programmes and pilots across the UK to deepen our understanding of what types of interventions can make a real difference to people's financial capability. In allocating this funding, we will be guided by the priorities already identified by the Financial Capability Strategy, across the UK and in each devolved nation. We are interested in the evaluation of existing interventions designed to help people to improve their financial capability, and also in the funding of analysis into existing interventions that could be proved to be scaleable. A third area of priority is the piloting of new, innovative approaches to engage and help people improve their financial capability.
