Improving All Types of Saving With the UK's Expanded Retirement Savings Platform
Lincoln Institute of Land Policy Aug. 6, 2012
"Known in the UK under the term 'corporate platform' ... the development allows employees to use the employer's retirement savings mechanism to save and invest for additional nonretirement purposes.... Although the UK's platform is intended as an enhancement to employer-provided benefits, it can also be used for a wide variety of policy goals, as the basic structure can be easily adapted to meet almost any nation's specific tax and savings system. In the United States alone, policy experts have proposed dedicated savings accounts for nonretirement purposes ranging from unemployment benefits and retraining, home purchases, health care, and long-term health care coverage, to repaying student loans or building college balances for children or grandchildren."
