There have been 500 more votes in the past week – and two new topic entrants. So what does the topic list for the NAPA 401(k) Summit look like now?
Two new topics entered the voting tool this week: Will technology make target date funds obsolete? and the place of robos in managed accounts.
As for the top 10, we have a new choice at the top of the list: Remembering the forgotten generation: engaging Gen X.
Disruptive forces in the retirement space slips from first place to second, while last week’s #3 (Debunking the fiduciary liability myth – why cheapest doesn’t mean less liability) also slips (to #4).
As for #3 – we have a new one this week: Plan health metrics, retirement readiness analytics, and benchmarking that help advisors shape plan design and improve their value prop. Also new to the top 10 was: Measuring retirement plan success: how are advisors quantifying impact of their work beyond investments and fees.
The remainder of the top 10 – with some jostling – remained in the top 10, specifically:
- Enhancing your profitability in a fee compressed world
- Integrating a decumulation focus into your accumulation practice
- What the IRS and DOL continue to target with your clients’ plans
- Blockchain technology and its potential impact on financial services/retirement plans
- What plan sponsors really think
But that’s only the top 10 – just a fraction of the topics we’ll have as part of the 2019 NAPA 401(k) Summit. We’ve lots more to choose (and vote) from because when we say that the NAPA 401(k) Summit is built by advisors, for advisors, we mean it. We’ve already got the location (Caesars, Las Vegas), the dates (April 7-9, 2019) and we’ve been working through a list of exciting keynote speakers. But this is your chance to weigh in on a critical aspect of the NAPA 401(k) Summit’s success – the agenda!
Our unique online voting tool will bring up two different session topics. All you have to do is pick your favorite – or add your own idea for others to vote on. Then you’ll get two more choices – vote or add one of your own. If you don’t like either of the suggestions (though that’s not likely) – there’s even an option for that. Every time you suggest an idea, it’s added to the pool of ideas that others vote on.
You can vote as often has you’d like – and we’ll keep you posted as to which topic(s) are leading, as we near the opening of registration for the 2019 NAPA 401(k) Summit.
