As an HR professional, it's important to know the best ways to help support your employees financially. It's well-known that two-thirds of Americans couldn't cover a $400 emergency expense.

This underscores the fact that financial literacy and emergency savings are areas in which most employees need extra help.

Employees have the flexibility to save for what matters to them, while employers have the flexibility to match savings in the buckets they want to support most.
Not only are employees building the habit of saving money and growing their emergency funds, but they are saving for other goals that are important to them, too. They learn to plan ahead and build a sensible budget that prevents them from dipping into their emergency fund for other purposes.
Once they build confidence and knowledge, within 2-3 years employees are looking to do more with their money. While most employees start out needing help with budgeting and saving for the short term, once they build their confidence, they look for help to do more with their money. Seeing their savings increase encourages them to think of bigger financial goals optimistically and pushes them to take action.
