Nearly 48% of people have built up a bigger ‘rainy day’ fund during the pandemic to cover spending for up to six months - although 20% of people said their savings fell during the crisis. 

More than four in ten (45%) British savers expect to draw cash out of savings and investments to cope with the impact of Coronavirus on their household’s finances.

1 in 5 British adults have no immediate access to ‘rainy day’ savings, according to a new survey of 2,000 adults.

A new consumer survey has found that more than 45.5m UK consumers have less than one month’s salary set aside in savings.
