Truist Momentum B2B - Transcript
Bill Rogers: 00:04 We know that literally millions of Americans live paycheck to paycheck. Companies can play a significant role in advancing the financial wellness for everyone. At Truist, our purpose is to inspire and build better lives and communities, so we worked with industry experts to develop a financial wellness program. And quite frankly, the results are amazing.
Signe Garnitz: 00:26 The response we've gotten has really been exciting. We initially got involved in the program to provide tools and opportunities for our employees.
Clarence Smith: 00:35 We offered it to the whole team, about 150 people. We had 90% of the people come to the kickoff sessions.
David Yeend: 00:43 I had never been offered anything like this from an employer before. It made me feel like they cared.
Amanda Warner: 00:50 For someone like me that doesn't actually understand finance in any way, shape, or form, it was just smart ideas that made sense to me.
Valerie Anonyuo: 00:57 I have one savings account, and everything goes in there. The program helped me to separate accounts. That was something I think that was new to me.
Yimeka Robbins: 01:05 You think you know everything about finance, or at least I did. I thought I knew everything, and there were certain things I didn't know. How to invest, how to look for a good mortgage when you're buying a house.
Signe Garnitz: 01:15 Funnily enough, my husband is in this line of work. Yet, we have never sat down and talked about the values that drive the choices we make and how we spend our money.
Clarence Smith: 01:26 I would be stopped in the hall by employees that have been with us for 15 years and say, "This is the most important thing that the company's ever done for me." It was really overwhelming. We were blown away by it.
