Adams to Lead American Savings Education Council
Nevin Adams
has been named director of the American Savings Education Council.
Reported by Rebecca Moore
The council is a program of the nonpartisan Employee Benefit Research Institute (EBRI). Adams will lead the council as part of his responsibilities as director of Education and External Relations at EBRI.
The American Savings Education Council (ASEC) is a partnership of public and private-sector organizations working to increase financial capability. Its mission is “to make saving and retirement planning a priority for all Americans.”
“Nevin
brought his decades of savings/financial/retirement program experience to EBRI
and these programs when he joined EBRI last year, and he will ensure that they
continue to be stellar programs in the future,” noted Dallas Salisbury, EBRI
president and chief executive.
“The importance of saving—and the challenges of financial literacy—are
particularly crucial during this period of financial stress,” Adams said. “ASEC
has been a key resource on these issues since 1995.”
ASEC’s resources include its Choose to Save program and its BallparkE$timate.
