Financial Stress, Wealth, Poverty and Indebtedness

The objective of this project is to gain understanding of the extent to which Australian families are living in financial stress and the relationship between financial stress, wealth and indebtedness. The report uses data from the first two waves (2001 and 2002) of the Household, Income and Labour Dynamics in Australia (HILDA) survey.

Funded by: Australian Government Department of Family and Community Services.

The Melbourne Institute contact for this project is Dr Gary Marks.

A draft report has been submitted to FaCS.
