Knowledge & Guidance to Help You Make The Best Choices
An employer-sponsored retirement plan is the primary savings tool for America's workforce, offering a powerful opportunity to help employees prepare for a secure financial future. However, like many valuable opportunities, it requires raising awareness and gaining support from those who need it most. The retirement landscape has changed over time, especially with the reduction of pension benefits, uncertainty surrounding Social Security, and rising healthcare costs. Now, more than ever, employees need guidance to overcome inertia and develop healthier financial habits.
Employee education and engagement are essential for achieving successful outcomes (i.e., overcoming inertia). Many employees acknowledge they aren’t saving enough for retirement and feel uncertain about how to prepare or what steps to take.
