Recognizing the challenge and importance of emergency savings for their sellers, Etsy joined BlackRock’s Emergency Savings Initiative (ESI) to learn more about their sellers and what kind of savings solutions would help them the most. 

Etsy partnered with Commonwealth, an ESI industry expert, to survey their sellers’ financial concerns and needs. The results of these findings come at a precarious time for small business owners and gig economy workers. However, this proactive measure provides much-needed insight into how Etsy sellers manage their unique financial situations and how the platform can step in to provide support.
