MADISON, Wis., March 19, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — TruStage®, a leading insurance and financial services provider, has partnered with Inspira Financial to offer TruStage Retirement Solutions clients Emergency Savings Fund (ESF) services for their employees.
“TruStage is focused on delivering retirement solutions that provide a clear path to a brighter financial future. We wanted to make sure our clients had an easy solution for emergency savings needs that complemented their retirement plan,” said Michael Conte, VP, Institutional Wealth Business, TruStage.
An ESF is an employer-administered benefit that is funded through automatic payroll deductions with a variety of additional options available such as employer match or bonus payments. Funds are not part of the employer’s retirement plan and are FDIC-insured and interest bearing so that employees can build savings to access during an emergency rather than tapping into their retirement account.
“Emergency savings plays a critical role in helping employees stay financially stable without disrupting their long-term goals,” said Chris Herman, EVP of retirement and wealth, Inspira Financial. “By pairing retirement plans with accessible emergency savings, employers can help people navigate unexpected moments while staying on track for the future.”
TruStage Retirement Solutions clients will have easy-to-use digital experience consistent with all of the financial wellness services available on the BenefitsForYou digital platform.
