Financial products and services are crucial in helping millions of Americans spend, save, borrow, and invest. Nevertheless, many contain hidden risks that can increase debt, drain savings, and damage credit.

Pew has worked to ensure that financial products many Americans use every day, including checking accounts and credit cards are fair and transparent for consumers.

Pew developed a disclosure box that provides critical information in a concise, easy-to-read manner.
