Evaluation of Target Date Glide Paths Within Defined Contribution Plans
Richard K. Fullmer and James A. Tzitzouris Jr. via SSRN Link to more items from this source
Oct. 11, 2013
"Two employers that each offer a DC plan with similar participant demographics and employee benefits may quite rationally select different glide paths because of different preferences.... [H]igher-equity glide paths offer greater efficacy for lifetime income replacement, while lower-equity glide paths offer greater efficacy for stable account balances with lower risk of large capital losses. Directionally, these conclusions hold over a wide range of plan characteristics and assumptions, although the relative magnitude of the trade-off depends on characteristics unique to each plan."
