Boston, March 18, 2021 – The competitive landscape of health savings accounts has seen a dynamic period of change and expansion in the last two years as financial advisors, retirement planners, life insurers, and other financial institutions have started to step into the HSA market. In doing so, they are not only raising the visibility of these accounts but also redrawing old borders and claiming land away from traditional players.
