PLANADVISER Weekend Newsdash
Week ending June 5th, 2020

Greetings loyal PLANADVISER readers. For this weekend’s mailing, we felt compelled to put a spotlight on some of our recent coverage about the lack of diversity and multicultural representation in the retirement plan services industry. The motivation for doing so is obvious, though that does not make the challenge of improving diversity easier. With that in mind, we hope some of the voices in these articles can help inspire change. Thanks as always for reading, and stay well!
