SafeGuard Guaranty Launches RetirementSavings.us

Raleigh, NC, April 27, 2016 (Newswire.com) - The SafeGuard Guaranty, today announced the launch of its fully featured website, www.retirementsavings.us , as a financial informational site that provides educational resources on subjects such as financial planning, insurance, and annuities, as well as helpful financial tips for retirement savings, insurance products, and more.

The new website provides financial information to help consumers navigate the savings and retirement income arena. The goal of the website is to educate and promote discussions on the topics of savings, investments and retirement income planning. The website includes helpful content on saving for retirement, videos on how to reduce debt, understanding life insurance, Social Security benefits, IRAs, annuities, and other topics.

"When we looked around the web for expert advice on retirement savings and planning, we found a lot of great information, but you had to look in different places for the expertise and information on different things. There was no 'one place' you could go to find everything you need to know about planning, saving and investing for a successful retirement, and how not to run out of money once you get there," said John Logan, SafeGuard Guaranty's CEO, "so we built it."

Twenty-eight percent of Americans have nothing in their savings accounts and another 21 percent don't even have a savings account, according to a survey from GOBankingRates. The rate comparison website surveyed 5,000 people and found just 29 percent of them had $1,000 or more in savings account.

 According to a 2015 Federal Reserve Report, 31 percent of non-retired people said they have no retirement savings or pension whatsoever. Additionally, a 2013 report by the National Institute on Retirement Savings found that the average near-retirement household had only $12,000 in retirement savings. Among workers who do not participate in a 401(k) or other defined contribution plan, 42 percent say it’s because their employer does not offer one. Furthermore, among part-time workers, a 2015 BLS Economic Release found that 62 percent don’t have access to a retirement plan at work.

The new RetirementSavings.us is also mobile friendly to cater to on-the-go users who access the website on mobile devices.
