A biweekly topical newsletter from PLANADVISER
Small Plans and Expanding Coverage
The defined contribution retirement plan industry has come a long way in the past few decades, growing to cover a sizable portion of the U.S. working population at the same time that pension plans have declined in prevalence. One of the clear challenges that remain, as explored in this edition of the PLANADVISER Spotlight newsletter, is expanding DC plan coverage to the small business community—and ensuring access to high-quality financial services support for communities of color and other underrepresented groups.
