Solving the Retirement Savings Paradox One Plan Sponsor at a Time
Vanguard Link to more items from this source
Aug. 12, 2016
"[One company] boosted deferral rates and overall retirement readiness among its participants by taking a few simple steps, including: [1] An annual sweep of nonparticipants into an age-appropriate Target Retirement Trust every year at 5% of pay. [2] Maximizing the company match dollar for dollar on the first 3% of pay and 50 cents on the dollar for the next 2%. [3] Raising the cap on autoescalation from 10% to 15%. Within six months of these changes, the manufacturer's participation rate jumped to close to 100% and the percentage of participants deferring at least 5% (9% including the company match) rose to 96%."
