A biweekly topical newsletter from PLANADVISER
Managed Accounts & QDIAs
It is often during times of stress that the defined contribution plan investment menu comes into the sharpest focus, and the current market environment can undoubtedly be described as stressful. Such periods always raise questions about how default investment options, whether target-date funds or managed accounts, should respond to surges of volatility and questions about the possibility of a recession. Collected below is PLANADVISER’s latest reporting on this important topic. We hope you share some of what you read with a client or colleague.
