In recent weeks, there has been a lot of discussion (and even some legislative encouragements) of some new (or, in some cases, not-so-new) plan design considerations. This week, we’d like to know what you think of these ideas—and whether they are, or will be, part of your discussions.
That’s right—in recent weeks bills have been introduced to support the use of annuities as a default investment alternative and to deploy automatic reenrollment of individuals who may have opted out of participation. Meanwhile, the notion that asset types like private equity and cryptocurrency could be a vital means of bringing more interest and value to defined contribution plans has bubbled up—and managed accounts, a hot topic not so long ago, seem to have plateaued—for the moment at least.
This is your chance to weigh in on what you’re thinking—and what (if anything) you’re doing/seeing in your practice(s). You can do so at https://www.research.net/r/XDTDPFK.
And we’ll wrap it up for you on Friday!
P.S.: Many of these are topics are featured at the upcoming NAPA 401(k) Summit. Today is the last day to register with the early bird rates—and don’t forget our #riskfree registration!
