- Title
Employee Education in Retirement Planning.
- Authors
Whitley, Arlene McDonnell
- Abstract
There exists, as of 1996, a strong bias toward investing in more conservative, fixed income and stable value type instruments. Section 404 of the Employment Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 requires at least three investment options and flexibility and timeliness in transferring funds. This has contributed to more active involvement by plan sponsors in supporting retirement planning and investment education for their employees. The challenge to U.S. employers is to deliver both the retirement planning and the investment information messages in a way that educates and motivates employees to have adequate assets at retirement in a defined contribution plan environment.
