Savings Index

Introduction from Nationwide UK (Ireland) Managing Director Brendan Synnott

“Welcome to the Nationwide UK (Ireland) Savings Index. We are delighted to launch this Savings Index in association with the Economic and Social Research Institute (ESRI).

As a relatively new direct savings provider to the Irish Market, we believe that its important to know what consumers think about savings, how important saving is today and whether government policy encourages saving. Decisions made by individuals about their saving intentions over the coming years will have important implications for the consumption of goods and services and the input this will make to economic recovery.

We hope that the information in our index will contribute to a better understanding of the dynamics of the Irish economy today and in the years ahead.

These pages will be updated each month with our latest results. For further information on the index, go to the FAQs section of this website.”
