MINNEAPOLIS — According to the 9th semi-annual Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) survey and resulting research report conducted by Devenir, HSAs have grown to an estimated $24 billion in assets and 13.8 million accounts at year-end 2014 and have grown to well over $27 billion in assets during the month of January.
The survey data was collected between January and February of 2015 and primarily consisted of top 100 HSA providers in the health savings account market, with all data being collected for the December 31st, 2014 period as well as top line data for January 2015 month end.
Key findings from the Devenir Year-End 2014 HSA Survey and resulting research report:

- Health plans drive growth During 2014, health plans were the leading driver of new account growth, accounting for 35% of new accounts.
- Continued strong market fuels HSA investment growth. HSA investment assets reached an estimated $3.2 billion in December, up 40% year over year. The average investment account holder has a $12,995 average total balance (deposit and investment account).
