We are proud to share that Candidly has been named to Fast Company's list of the world's Most Innovative Companies for 2024. ?? 80% of Americans with student loans prioritize paying down their college debt over saving for retirement — a tradeoff with devastating consequences for long-term financial security. So when lawmakers first proposed a policy to enable employers to match workers' student loan payments with retirement contributions, we started developing the technology needed to bring such a program to life. And as a result of our proactive stance and steadfast willingness to make big bets in borrowers' best interest, Candidly was ready to help stakeholders operationalize the legislation from the moment it became law on January 1, 2024. Our SECURE 2.0-compliant Student Loan Retirement Match solution is just one example of how innovation drives impact at Candidly, and one of many reasons why we're so proud to be recognized among the world's Most Innovative Companies.
