Santander Bank has announced new results from its Openbank Growing Personal Savings (“GPS”) Tracker, which found that while consumers are focused on saving, many are not using accounts that could help them reach their goals. Nearly eight in 10 consumers say saving is a high priority, but 69% do not use higher-rate accounts — such as high-yield savings accounts, money market accounts and certificates of deposit (CDs) — that would accelerate their savings progress. ? The survey revealed that savers have been most successful at the beginning of the year, with more consumers adding to their savings and meeting their goals during the first quarter. With 58% soon anticipating a tax refund and 35% expecting an annual work bonus, savers can leverage higher-rate account options to grow these funds faster. ?
