Product Updates - June 2022

Banzai has made some exciting updates! Here are some of our newest products and resources.

How to Weather an Economic Storm Assessment

It's common for users to worry about whether or not they're prepared for the worst-case scenario. Rising interest rates paired with economic uncertainty have people asking questions they might not have otherwise asked. How to Weather an Economic Storm is the newest assessment in the Banzai library and was created to help users ask and get answers to the right questions. Each user will walk away knowing how much they'll need for an emergency fund, where their retirement will get them, and what rising interest rates and prices mean for them.
