“After a challenging 2020, a 401(k) can be a welcome and meaningful holiday gift that helps employees start the new year right, with a renewed focus on building savings,” says Stuart Robertson, president and CEO of ShareBuilder 401k.

Robertson points out that plans set up in December can also include an initial 401(k) contribution from the business owner, be it a match or profit share contribution, “enabling them to say ‘happy holidays’” in 2020. These employer contributions are tax deductible, too, he says.
