Savings Goal

Planning Your Savings Goal

Whether you're saving for a house deposit, a new car, or an emergency fund, having a clear target and a monthly plan is the first step toward success. This calculator helps you work backward from your goal to see exactly what you need to set aside each month.

Considerations

When setting a goal, be realistic about your timeframe and the interest rate you can achieve. Savings accounts, CDs, and other low-risk investments offer different rates that can significantly impact how much you need to contribute out-of-pocket.
