Background
Knowledge is limited about how to design CDAs to best facilitate savings. Dominant theories and
empirical studies of saving focus mainly on individual factors. The life-cycle hypothesis and bufferstock
model, two neoclassical economic theories, explain variation in savings with individual
differences in preferences, constraints, and opportunities. These theories highlight the role of
income and other economic resources, stage in the life cycle, and individual preferences for risktaking
(Ando & Modigliani, 1963; Beverly et al., 2008; Carroll, 1997). Behavioral economists focus
on common individual shortcomings such as cognitive limitations and self-control problems and
often suggest ways policies and programs can accommodate these individual characteristics (Beverly
et al., 2008).
