America Saves Week is an opportunity for individuals to take financial action and save money for emergencies, retirement, and everything in between. America Saves recognizes the important role that banks play in helping families save money and build wealth.
That’s why we will recognize exceptional banks that succeed in promoting savings or other wealth building accounts and have high levels of accounts opened or added to during America Saves Week 2018 with our Designation of Savings Excellence.
A selection committee comprised of industry and nonprofit leaders will meet in Spring 2018 to review applications and select the winners.
This year, the designation application is a part of the America Saves Week reporting survey. We simplified both with fewer and easier to answer questions. You can preview the application here.
The application for the America Saves Designation of Savings Excellence for Banks is due April 6.
