Continued economic uncertainty means continued uncertainty for the markets. Plan sponsors should consider what this means for investment lineups in defined contribution (DC) plans and asset allocations in defined benefit (DB) plans. DC plan sponsors should also consider participants’ desire for more protection. And participants need to be reminded of the best response to market volatility. In this edition of PLANSPONSOR Weekend, plan sponsors will find food for thought as they review their investments in this uncertain environment. Have a great weekend! |
