Kern Schools Credit Union Deploys SaveDaily Platform to Service Online Investors

SEAL BEACH, Calif., March 21, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- SaveDaily, Inc. (OTCBB: SAVY), a leading provider of low cost mutual fund investing platforms used by financial institutions, has been selected by Kern Schools Federal Credit Union (KSFCU) to provide self-directed investment options to its online users.

"Our goal is to offer a new way for our members to save and invest, particularly those members who don't frequent our branch offices. These users want to begin a savings program that includes the option to invest, but most are investing smaller amounts than members who participate in our traditional broker-managed programs. We had to find a way to meet the needs of this new breed of investor, and the SaveDaily platform is the ideal solution," states Larry Braley, Vice President, Wealth Management, Kern Schools Federal Credit Union.

Kern Schools Federal Credit Union is one of the top 100 credit unions in the country, with over 170,000 members and over $1.2b in assets.  "At the end of the day, typical brokers can only handle so many accounts and they are not necessarily interested in servicing smaller investors," Braley added. "The SaveDaily platform allows us to not only private-label the application so that our members feel a connection with our institution, but we can flag accounts when an investor reaches a certain account size threshold. Then our broker team can reach out to the member to talk about additional investment options.  SaveDaily is the perfect way to create a long term investment relationship with our members."

"KSFCU is addressing the needs of a group of members that many other institutions have not yet recognized," said Greg Vacca, SaveDaily president. "Young investors and those members struggling to rebuild retirement accounts want a way to invest like large Wall Street players without having the funds to do so more quickly. With SaveDaily, the investments of smaller investors are aggregated into large funds managed by experienced professionals. KSFCU recognizes this value-add to its members, and soon its members will be reaping the benefits of this new program." 

KSFCU will initially offer mutual funds, IRAs and other traditional investment options via the SaveDaily platform, with the goal of eventually offering health savings account (hsa) alternatives through SaveDaily.  KSFCU expects to roll out its new program in late spring of 2013.
