The American Retirement Association, PLANSPONSOR and ISS are not affiliated with the 401(k) Champion® Award Competition or the award’s sponsors. David Wray, a longtime advocate for the 401(k) as a retirement savings tool and retired president of the Plan Sponsor Council of America, serves as adviser to the award competition. About the 401(k) Champion® Award Financial literacy proponent, Julie Jason, created the 401(k) Champion® Competition in 2018 after recognizing that, within the 401(k) space, there were awards that honored plan sponsors, but none that focused on 401(k) participants. “A peer-to-peer message from one 401(k) participant to another can be more powerful than reading a brochure, attending an employee enrollment session, or trying to navigate an online tool,” said Jason. “That’s what this award is all about -- inspiring grassroots education and encouragement.” Get ready for the next 401(k) Champion® Competition Information on the next annual 401(k) Champion® Competition will be posted on the award website in 2022. The contest is open to 401(k) participants age 21 and older. Plan sponsors are encouraged to share information about the competition with their employees by going to https://401kchampion.com/for-employers/ and downloading a flyer with information about the 401(k) Champion® Competition. About the Sponsors Julie Jason, JD, LLM, is a longtime vocal proponent of investor education. Her first two books focused on 401(k)s. In 1996, she authored “You and Your 401(k): How to Manage Your 401(k) for Maximum Returns,” and in 1997, “The 401(k) Plan Handbook,” a guide for sponsors. Her more recent books include “The Retirement Survival Guide” (2017 update of “The AARP Retirement Survival Guide”) and “Retire Securely,” both recipients of the EIFLE (Excellence in Financial Literacy Education) Award. Her upcoming book is a retirement guide for lawyers, called “The Discerning Investor,” to be published by the American Bar Association. www.juliejason.com Jason is the founder of Jackson, Grant Investment Advisers, Inc., investment counsel serving high-net-worth families. www.jacksongrantus.com |
