We're on a mission to improve the financial literacy of

1 million people in the workplace

We believe that true financial wellbeing can only be attained by improving financial education.

So, this is exactly what we have set out to do, with a particular focus on educating and providing guidance to people within the workplace.  

We have developed a comprehensive 3 step programme that we believe will have a positive impact on the financial wellbeing of your workforce.  

You can read more about our 3 step programme to achieving this goal below.

But before we do, let’s start with why this is such an important issue for both individuals and employers.

The need for financial education:

The individual perspective

The need for financial education:

The employer perspective

Improve the financial education of your workforce with our

3 step programme

We have developed a 3 step programme to help organisations deliver financial education to their workforce, which ultimately leads to improved financial wellbeing.  

You often find that many financial wellbeing and education programmes, that employers offer, are not targeted and/or it is hard to really measure whether the support that is being offered is making a tangible difference.

Our 3 step programme looks to address this problem.

STEP 1 – ASSESS

We have developed an assessment tool, that allows an individual to do an online, 10-minute, assessment of their financial wellbeing across a range of different aspects of their life. Once they complete the assessment, they get a personalised report.

STEP 2 – ANALYSE

As an organisation, you are able to see, at an anonymous level, the financial wellbeing scores of your workforce.  In turn, this information allows you to understand exactly where people need help, which allows you to put in place a highly targeted financial education programme.

STEP 3 – EDUCATE

We have created a series of presentations and webinars that cover key topics from the point that someone enters the workplace through to when they retire. Using the output from Step 2 allows you to deliver sessions that you know will help improve the lives of your workforce.  

Read more about the 3 steps below.

STEP 1 - ASSESS

Complete the assessment tool

We have developed a comprehensive online Financial Wellbeing Assessment Tool.

The Assessment tool allows an individual to answer some straightforward questions, and then receive a personalised score and report covering all areas of their financial life.

We have developed our own financial wellbeing scoring algorithm that attributes a personal wellbeing score to each person that completes the assessment.

The assessment tool can be made available for FREE to your workforce.  Or if you would prefer to bespoke the questions, answers and output, this can also be achieved. 

Get in contact and you can try the assessment tool for yourself.

and how the scores are presented

These scores are provided as part of the personalised report, which in essence, provides you with help and guidance on what steps you can take to improve your scores, and therefore your personal financial wellbeing.

IT'S PERSONAL

IT'S INSIGHTFUL

As an organisation you can use the output to design targeted financial wellbeing programmes for your workforce

STEP 2 - ANALYSE

See where your workforce need help

The challenge with a lot of financial education and wellbeing programmes is that it’s hard to know whether the support an organisation offers its workforce, will, or won’t, have an impact.  

That is why we have developed an analytics dashboard that allows you, on an anonymised basis, to see what scores your people are getting as they complete the Assessment tool.

In turn, you can then take this information to create a tailored financial education programme as part of Step 3.

STEP 3 - EDUCATE

Provide access to financial education

Ultimately, improving the financial wellbeing of your workforce will require education.  That is why we have developed a range of presentations that can be delivered online or in person.  

Our presentations are designed to capture the issues that most people will face in their lifetime, all the way from entering the workplace through to when they retire and beyond.   

The presentations are designed in such a way, that they are easy to follow, and break down the core messages into easily understandable chunks.  

Examples of the types topics we cover in our financial education sessions
