How Savvly Works

When you contribute to Savvly, your money is split into two separate investment strategies within one account:

Traditional Portfolio--90%

Familiar investment approach—allocated to ETFs and bonds through industry leaders like Vanguard and BlackRock.
You maintain full control—your assets are 100% owned by you and accessible at any time.
Designed for market growth—potential to benefit from standard market returns over time.

Pension Fund--10%

A longevity-focused strategy—a Pension Fund designed to reward more for those who live longer.
Structured payouts—provides additional income starting at age 80.
Increases over time—potential for larger distributions every 5 years after 80.
Long-term financial security—helps supplement your retirement income in later years.

The Magic Behind Savvly Pension Fund

Risk Sharing Pool

The Savvly Pension Fund pools the 10% contributions from all members, creating a shared pool that grows with the market.

Retained Market Gains

When members leave early, they receive 75% of their Pension Fund, plus 1% for every year they participate. For the members that remain, they receive the their entire Pension Fund they contributed and the market gains

Longevity Bonuses

These retained gains create "longevity bonuses" that are paid out to members who stay in the program, resulting in returns that can exceed traditional market performance.

Frequently asked questions

What is Savvly and how does it work?

Savvly is a modern personal pension solution designed to help you secure your retirement. The pension portfolio consists of low-cost index funds from leading asset managers like Vanguard, along with up to 10% invested in the Savvly Fund. The Savvly Fund pools investments among participants, allowing those who stay in the fund long-term to benefit the most. By investing a portion of your savings in the Savvly Fund, you receive long-life bonuses that help maximize your paychecks, ensuring peace of mind in retirement.

Is the Savvly fund an insurance product?

No, the Savvly Fund is not an insurance policy or annuity. There’s no insurance company taking profits. Instead, all contributions stay within the Savvly Fund, and those who remain invested long-term benefit more from the investment pool.

Is the Savvly Fund a traditional investment fund?

No, the Savvly Fund is not a typical investment fund. Your assets are invested in a low-cost S&P 500 ETF, managed by a third-party custodian (Apex Group), ensuring secure, long-term growth. Savvly manages the process of new investors entering an existing pool.

What type of investment is the Savvly Pension and Savvly Fund?

The Savvly Pension is structured as a personal retirement account that includes the Savvly Fund. The Savvly Fund enables a minimum level of pooling among the independent personal retirement accounts. The Savvly Fund helps investors provide stable, lifelong income that can grow as people age.

Who Can Invest in the Savvly Pension?

Savvly is open to anyone. The minimum investment starts at $100/month, and there is no long-term commitment.

How Much Should I Invest in the Savvly Pension?

We recommend contributing as much as you feel comfortable investing in your retirement. When the Savvly Pension is used in a qualified account (IRA o ROTH IRA), the Federal Government does not allow penalty-free withdrawals before 59 ½. If you want full unrestricted access to your fund, you should consider opening the Savvly Pension in our standard brokerage account.

What Kind of Accounts Can I Use to Invest?

Good news. The Savvly Pension can sit on both non-qualified brokerage accounts or a qualified account like IRA and ROTH IRA.. This means you can use funds from your savings, brokerage, or checking accounts— and Savvly accepts IRA rollovers.

What If I Need to Withdraw or Pass Away?

If you withdraw or pass away, you or your estate will receive the net asset value (NAV) of the investment in your account: bonds, equity, and the Savvly Fund. The value of the Savvly Fund, which typically weighs less than 10% of your account, depends on your age and the performance of the S&P 500. Generally, the value of the Savvly Fund is at least 75% of the investment amount and can be up to a multiple of the performance of the S&P 500 during your investment period, depending on the age of withdrawal. See details here ‍

The IRS may impose penalties for early withdrawals in qualified accounts.

When Will I Receive My Payouts?

You can choose to begin receiving monthly paychecks anytime, with no upper age limit. Payouts are based on a target 100-year lifespan and may change based on inflation and market returns, ensuring you always have recurrent income, no matter how long you live. You can withdraw all your assets anytime if you wish.

How Does Savvly Protect My Money?

Your investment is securely held in a standard brokerage or qualified account. Your assets remain in your name all the time and are never on Savvly’s balance sheet. The funds are held by a third-party custodian (Apex) to ensure safety and transparency.

Are There Any Medical Requirements?

No medical exam or health history is required. Your Savvly Pension is based purely on financial contributions and doesn’t take your health into account. However, Savvly is designed for those who expect a long retirement, beyond 80 and want to prepare accordingly starting early in life.

What Is the Tax Treatment of Savvly Investments?

It depends on the type of accounts you choose when you sign up. Taxation is deferred for qualified accounts like IRA and ROTH IRA. Savvly does not provide tax advice.
