About 10 million Defined Contribution (DC) participants change jobs each year – 3.4 million with account balances of less than $5,000.
More than half of these “low balance” participants cash out their DC plans when they change jobs.
Over the longer term, these participants – most of them younger – lose out on the potential for long-term growth of their retirement investment.
Cashing out is the “easy” behavior for these smaller balance accounts.
Automatic portability is a new approach to helping individuals retain retirement assets, in the Defined Contribution system, as they change jobs throughout their careers – and may be especially beneficial for younger workers.
