Responsible Personal Finance: The Role of Conscientiousness in Bank and Pension Savings in Chile

Autor: Edgar Kausel, Erwin Hansen, Pablo Tapia

We investigate the role of trait conscientiousness, from the Big Five personality traits, in explaining individual saving behavior. Conscientiousness is a disposition to be responsible and pursue non-immediate goals; thus, we expect this trait to positively predict saving behavior. Using a nationally representative survey from Chile, we find the expected effect of conscientiousness on pension and bank savings.
