Firms Launch Retirement Education Series

Mercer and the Stanford Center on Longevity released the first article in a series on the challenges facing workers and employers in generating retirement income.
Reported by

The first article, “It’s Time to Rise to the Retirement Income Challenge,” examines such topics as protecting income throughout a lengthy retirement, surviving market volatility and ensuring savings contributions are hitting levels sufficient for a secure retirement.

The wider series is based on a report published earlier this year from Mercer and will investigate a range of issues. These range from the way exposing plan participants to an aged, digital version of themselves impacts savings behavior to more practical questions, such as what difference an employer’s involvement can make on a typical retiree check. (See “Securing Retirement Outcomes for Employees.”)
