The Role of the Employer in Improving Retirement Security

ABOUT THIS WEBINAR

Join us for a webinar examining how retirement plans can serve as effective tools for generating lifetime income through risk pooling. Over the past 25 years, private sector employers have shifted away from traditional defined benefit pension plans toward the defined contribution model. This session will explore alternative plan designs and consider potential reforms that could encourage employers to take a more active role in providing secure retirement income for their employees.

By the end of this webinar, attendees will:

• Understand how employer retirement plans support overall retirement security
• Understand current employer retirement plans and alternate plan designs
• Explore reform options that improve retirement income for employees
