Week ending June 8th, 2018 |
Happy weekend, PLANSPONSOR readers! This week we’ll be focusing on financial wellness and participant education. According to a Financial Finesse survey, participants repeatedly engaging in financial wellness programs offered by their employer are more likely to be on track for retirement and have higher confidence in their investments. Next, some companies are executing new participant education communications—behavioral economics. The education method merges psychology and economics to understand specific decisions, says the International Foundation of Employee Benefit Plans (IFEBP). Employees are also crediting health savings accounts (HSAs) and wellness programs for empowering them to make better health and financial decisions, and employers are looking to offer total well-being programs rather than solely physical. All this and more on this edition of PLANSPONSOR Weekend. |
