报告人:孟涓涓 北京大学光华管理学院教授
主持人:龚冰琳 经济与管理学院教授
内容简介:We collaborate with a bank to conduct two large-scale field experiments (N = 36,116) promoting China’s newly launched first-ever voluntary personal retirement savings plan through automated calls. We find that financial interventions highlighting tax benefits and compound interest outperform the industry-standard bonus by about 30% in improving call listening behavior. Behavioral nudges targeting time misperception, bequest motives, and procrastination also yield significant gains between 4%-8%. Investigating subsequent app browsing dynamic patterns uncovers novel evidence of an attention–memory–action process, triggered by time-sensitive cues such as tax deadlines and traditional holidays, highlighting the need to evaluate nudge effects beyond immediate responses. Algorithmically personalized scripts further increase listening by 6.2% and browsing by 17.4%, showcasing the value of personalized nudges. Our findings contribute to the literature on retirement savings, attention, and nudges by showing how scalable, low-cost, and personalized interventions can address the global challenge of low participation in voluntary retirement saving schemes.
