Many U.S. workers confident in daily finances but unprepared for complex decisions, says PNC report

PNC Bank's 2026 Financial Wellness in the Workplace Report reveals that while 71% of U.S. workers feel confident managing daily finances, only 33% have strong foundational financial knowledge for long-term goals like retirement and investing. Financial stress affects productivity, with 85% worrying about money during work hours. Employers are optimistic about the economy but may overestimate workers' retirement readiness. The report highlights opportunities for employers to enhance financial education and support, linking access to financial guidance with greater worker confidence and better financial outcomes.

The new survey on financial preparedness among U.S. workers and employers shows significant gaps in foundational knowledge despite high confidence in daily money management.
