Retirement plan sponsors and consultants up on the latest ideas about best practices in defined contribution plans may have support for plan design reform from an unexpected source: plan participants themselves.
Financial advisors relying on the classic 4 percent rule for their clients retirement income have a better than even chance of failure, according to newly published research.
If your clients lose their wealth, you do too - so advisors should not be indifferent to actions clients can take to legally safeguard their wealth, notes an attorney.
