Webinar: Work and Wealth: Employers as Platforms for Prosperity

Is the workplace a venue to promote wealth building? What roles should employers play to promote financial capability among its workforce? Do employer-based efforts have impact, and what should grantmakers know when investing in promising employer strategies to build employee wealth?

Employers have direct access and existing structures that make them an ideal connector and perhaps deliverer of financial capability services. Financial coaching, access to financial products, savings, and online financial tools are some of the most promising strategies employers are using to integrate financial services into their company and/or organizational fabric.

On June 6th, 2017, Asset Funders Network and presenters explored the workplace as a platform for the integration of employee financial capability and overall financial well-being, including recent research, examples of success, and the specific role philanthropy can play.
