3. Current Challenges in DC Plan
• 90% of workers in companies with 500 or more employees
have access to either a DB or DC plan, but just over half, 53%
of workers of companies with fewer than 100 employees,
have that access. It boils down to administration to do and
Cost.
• 7 in 10 (69%) are confident they will have enough to live
comfortably. Less Focus on Decumulation side as How do
you make that money last the rest of your life, when you
don't know your expiration date.
4. Current Challenges
• 40% of workers are likely to fall short of being able to cover their
expenses in retirement. That's a deficit of $3.68 trillion due to
problem of leakage.
• Challenging in an environment where there are firms out there
waiting to chop it off, and to sue you for innovating, knowing
that, you know, their strategy is not to litigate the merits of what
you're doing, but instead to force settlements because of the
unbelievable costs in trying to defend these cases. Opportunities
to create efficiencies in the system around distributed ledger
,blockchains, cloud-based systems, Robo- advisory solutions
5. Current Environment
Inability of Social Security – aging population, low
fertility rate and improved life expectancy
Lack of access to employer sponsored plans- 45%
(62.8 million people) either do not participate or do not
have access to employer-sponsored retirement plans.
Low interest rate environment- pressures to adjust
pension promises downwards or to increase
contributions
Low retirement savings - average US citizen is not
saving enough for retirement.
Underfunding of DB plans- the money needed to cover
current and future retirements is not readily available
