In this latest Marquette Defined Contribution paper, we build on the similar themes of governance and evolving best practices by emphasizing that positive challenges lie ahead for trusted stewards of defined contribution plan assets; particularly, as defined contribution assets continue to grow, new types of DC plans emerge, best practices evolve, and an increasingly diverse population is gaining access to defined contribution plans. Consequently, those of us that are entrusted as fiduciaries have an opportunity to place segments of our country’s workforce on a steadier path towards retirement readiness.
