Competing priorities are a fact of life for today’s retirement savers. Juggling these priorities, planning and saving earlier, and leveraging financial resources can make these goals more attainable. SECURE 2.0 provides new features that can be offered in workplace retirement plans, making it easier for individuals to balance these needs.
Many of the SECURE 2.0 provisions will become effective over the next few years, allowing plan sponsors to consider the impact to their employees and organizations. Through the expanding role of the workplace retirement plan, employers have the opportunity to play an increasingly important role in the financial wellbeing of their employees.
