When we query Plan Sponsors about their main topic of concern, time and time again it is Retirement Income and readying their participants for the decumulation stage. The population is aging, and the “Great Resignation” has added to the growing number of people that are moving to retirement readiness.

In response, there are several initiatives that have taken hold including auto-enrollment, auto-escalation, new plan designs and financial wellness programs.

Our panels will highlight and discuss new options and what could be on the horizon and how to best interweave solutions to your plan. Hear how other plans have introduced new components and refreshed their plan design to meet the needs of a changing workforce.

Key Agenda Topics:
• Current and proposed regulation affecting retirement savings including the newly introduced “Auto re-enrollment Act of 2022”.
• Innovations in plan design including options imbedded in TDFs.
• The growing popularity of keeping assets in-plan once active employment has ended.
• New and improved financial wellness programs to meet an increase in activity and a more diverse labor force.
