27 V308 26 Financial Literacy  Low  Not a priority in schools or later  Efforts offset by spend and borrow consumption culture  Not high for participants  Essential if income is not annuitized and there are assets to manage

28 V308 27 Principles of Retirement Readiness  Early participation, consistent high contributions, and preservation  Early ballpark e$timate® of savings needed and annual update  Diversified asset allocation with reasonable costs and risk/age based re-balancing  Ongoing total life financial education, planning and implementation  Employer recognition of value to short term and long term productivity and profitability

29 V308 28 Helping Participants Navigate  How much can you afford to save?  Might you borrow this money?  How long do you think you will be with this employer?  Might you cash out at job change?  Is this your only savings?  Would you sell if the market dropped?  How willing are you to lose money?

30 V308 29 Getting Participation Up  Default enrollment with matching contribution highest rates  Default enrollment with no match near tie  Voluntary enrollment with match near tie  Voluntary enrollment with no match next  Voluntary IRA with payroll deduction next  Voluntary IRA on own lowest

31 V308 30 Getting Contributions Up  Automatic employer contribution best  Default contribution next  Auto escalation essential feature over long term – or less will be saved

32 V308 31 Preservation A Growing Focus  Job change and low balance losses  Loan and hardship losses  Employers increasingly seek to keep funds in the pla n at job change  Employers increasingly focused on at retirement with drawal method and options

33 V308 32 Public Policy – 2008 and Beyond  Social Security and Medicare as Focus  Mandatory savings considered but unlikely  Due to low incomes, tax loads, and health costs  Employer plans and IRA’s likely to be put to effectiveness test – tax restrictions? Fee rules?  Later retirement ages for those able to work  Low disability and SSA incomes for those not healthy enough to work
