The Trump administration’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) included a new type of savings account, called “Trump accounts,” that operate similar to IRAs but are designed for parents to help their kids build savings. As for which states will benefit the most from Trump accounts, SmartAsset recently conducted an analysis to find out.

As part of the analysis, researchers looked at U.S. Census Bureau data and ranked states based on the percentage of the population comprised of women ages 20 to 34. This figure was then compared to the statewide fertility rate in that age range to project the number of babies born per year. States with the highest percentage of young women versus the total population ranked highest in the SmartAsset analysis.

Here’s a look at the 10 states that should benefit the most from Trump accounts, according to SmartAsset.
