Finder launches New Year's resolution tool

Mortgage comparison website Finder has released an online tool to assist those attempting to keep their New Year's resolutions.

In a study commissioned by Finder, around 45% of respondents surveyed had made a New Year's resolution. According to the study results, two in every three people who make a New Year's pledge don't succeed.

Three in four respondents believed that sharing their resolution helped them achieve their goals, leading Finder to develop an online pledging tool. The tool allows people to share their financial, travel, business and fitness goals, among others, on social media. It also delivers reminders for those who tend to forget their resolutions early in the year.
