Peer Comparison
Peer comparison can be a powerful motivator, particularly as it relates to retirement savings and personal finances. ING U.S.’s suite of innovative peer comparison and personalized benchmarking tools, including ING CompreMe, ING State of Savings and ING My Savings Score, coupled with our behavioral finance research, has provided meaningful insight into how peer comparison affects retirement savings behavior.
Together, these tools can inform, engage and inspire individuals to make positive changes now so they can work towards enjoying a comfortable retirement down the road.
ING CompareMe (www.ingcompareme.com) makes it possible for anyone to see where they stand in relation to others on a wide range of saving, spending, investing, debt and personal finance matters.
ING State of Savings (www.ingstateofsavings.com) is an interactive map that provides a state-by-state scan and ranking of how Americans say they are saving across the country.
ING My Savings Score (www.ingmysavingscore.com) is a personalized savings benchmarking tool that allows users to “score” their personal retirement preparedness by comparing their current savings to a prescriptive target, based on age and annual income.
