Although subjective well-being and its relationship with socio-economic variables and macroeconomic conditions have been studied extensively, evidence of its relationship with macro-financial variables is limited. After controlling for macroeconomic indicators and individual characteristics, we find evidence of associations between three macro-financial indicators and subjective well-being. Our results demonstrate that stock market performance, house price deviations from its long-run trend, and cost of access to credit for households and firms all have a significant effect on life satisfaction.
