CPRC Research Opportunities

The CPRC offers the following opportunities for research and collaboration:

  • Data Sharing - The CPRC offers data on consumer payment behavior for researchers and analysts. The Survey of Consumer Payment Choice (SCPC) is available to the public for free from our web site. Other proprietary data are also available for researchers affiliated with the CPRC. For details see the Catalogue of CPRC Research Databases
  • Visiting Scholars - The CPRC offers opportunities for short-term and long-term visiting scholars on a paid or unpaid basis. Visiting scholars provide expert advice to the CPRC, may collaborate on research with CPRC staff, and have access to the CPRC databases and resources.

  • Joint Research - The staff of the CPRC and Research Department of the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston welcome proposals to conduct joint research, which would not require individuals to travel to Boston.
