Event description: America’s private retirement system has shifted from a world in which employers bore most of the significant risks of retirement to a world in which individuals bear these risks largely on their own. This conference explored whether employers and individuals might be better off in a middle ground between these two extremes — in plan designs that share the risks of retirement among individuals and their employers. Getting there will require thinking outside the box of traditional defined benefit plans and 401(k) individual account plans.
