The Filene Research Institute is an American credit union and consumer finance think tank headquartered in Madison, Wisconsin.

History and objective

Founded in 1989,[3][4] it is committed to research and innovation to further the credit union movement and support consumer financial wellbeing. The institute is named for Edward Filene, a Boston, Massachusetts-based businessman and philanthropist who was instrumental in the creation of credit unions in the U.S.

In 1993, the institute published a research report on the evolution of credit union field of membership, helping to lay the groundwork for H.R 1151, the Credit Union Membership Access Act.[5][6]

In 2003, the institute started the REAL Solutions project to study financial services for low-income households and address predatory lending and other fringe financial services. The project became a program of the National Credit Union Foundation in 2007.[7]

In 2004, the institute launched an innovation training program called i3 (for "Ideas, Innovation, Implementation"), which brings together credit union executives to identify new solutions and business models in financial services.[8]

In 2010, the institute established the Cooperative Trust program and community to support credit union young professionals.[9][10] In 2017, the Cooperative Trust was awarded the Herb Wegner Memorial Outstanding Program Award by the National Credit Union Foundation [11]

The institute engages several prominent academic researchers, including:
