As part of the offer, the Moneycube.ie team will visit the offices of businesses around the country to conduct National Pensions Tests (NPTs) and provide one-to-one information sessions on a variety of financial wellbeing topics.

Launched to mark the beginning of PAW24, the new NPT is designed to gauge people’s readiness to start a pension. It also will test their knowledge of how to track the performance of their investments, their readiness for retirement, and their understanding of optimal employee benefits.

The theme of PAW24 is: ‘You wouldn’t ignore your NCT, why neglect your NPT?’

With that in mind, and to raise awareness about retirement planning, Moneycube.ie is also offering a free will to all those who take the test.

It is expected that after the NPT, employees will have a more complete understanding of why they should start a pension, their pension contributions, the company benefits to which they are entitled, and how much income they will need enjoy a comfortable retirement.

To register to host a free Pop-Up Pensions Test Centre for PAW24, businesses are requested to fill out the online form.

The NPT is also available online via the PAW24 website – www.pensionsawarenessweek.ie – along with the NPT Calculator, an online dashboard which helps people calculate the savings they will need for retirement.

PAW24 is a designed to raise awareness about retirement planning and to help people take charge of their long-term savings. Backed by a host of business industry partners, PAW24 is an initiative from Moneycube.ie, experts in the pensions industry.

PAW24 partners include including New Ireland, Standard Life, Zurich Life, the Retirement Planning Council of Ireland, Ibec, the Small Firms Association, and Royal London Ireland.

Feargal McKenna, Head of Corporate at Moneycube.ie, says:
