Retirement Trends

Sen. Bernie Sanders released a report on the problems facing the retirement system, as advocates of DB plans and proponents of DC plans squared off in search of solutions for employees without a retirement plan at work.

The new law bolsters small businesses' ability to provide retirement benefits to their employees by offering tax credits to offset costs, however, for advisors, it's an unprecedented opportunity to tap into a new revenue stream.

One in four retired Americans have regrets about their decisions regarding retirement savings, and employers should listen and make sure employees understand retirement planning, no matter their age, says a new survey.

Student loan borrowers making payments have significantly lower 401(k) contribution rates, however, some of the impact of the payments was lessened by auto-enrollment or employer contribution match, says a new report.

With steep inflation affecting retirement goals, employers can play a pivotal role in reducing employees' financial stress by enhancing their offerings beyond the traditional 401(k) with emergency savings accounts, says a new report.

The Starter 401(k) gives those employers not already offering a retirement plan an alternative option, automating the process to make traditional 401(k) plans more accessible, especially to smaller companies.
