Highlights
Over the past three decades, defined contribution plans have revolutionized the way many Americans plan and save for a secure retirement. Even as these plans continue to grow in both popularity and effectiveness, however, a vast swath of American workers—especially those who work for a small business—still do not have access to automated, workplace retirement savings.
For many industry observers, this coverage gap constitutes one of biggest challenges—and opportunities—facing the financial services industry. While there remains ample room for skepticism, there is also reason for cautious optimism. For example, congressional leaders of both parties have found common cause in positive retirement reform legislation, numerous states continue to move forward with state-sponsored retirement initiatives, and plan providers across the financial services industry appear poised to strike a much-needed balance and synthesis between human-delivered and technology-delivered services.
Obviously, we can't tackle all aspects of this evolution in a single webcast. What we can do, however, is spotlight specific areas of impending change and begin to explore how these changes might inform the evolution of our respective firm's retirement products, services and strategy.
Join us for a live, interactive discussion on July 31, 2018 during which we will focus two major industry developments that have the potential to significantly impact the trajectory of our industry: the recently introduced Retirement Enhancements and Savings Act of 2018 (RESA) and the growing array of state-sponsored retirement plans.
