Explore new research on DC plans and where they’re heading

Most of us can agree: retirement looks nothing like it did a generation ago. Americans are living longer, more active lives in retirement. In many cases they have more debt than previous generations of retirees. Given the decline in pension benefits, many workers will depend more on their defined contribution (DC) plans—and their employers—to fund retirement. How are HR and finance leaders thinking differently about retirement for their employees? What do they need to make progress? And how can consultants and providers help? Join TIAA and SageView Advisory Group for a conversation about the results of Building a Better Retirement, a new blind survey of 500 C-Suite leaders in HR and finance across 401(k), 403(b) and 457 plans. We’ll share what plan sponsors told us about: • Their plans’ purpose. • Their priorities going forward. • The biggest obstacles in their way. Survey insights will help you drive deeper conversations with clients about the future of their plans and their next steps to get there.
