Webinar takeaways will include:
- Concrete ways to get less of the things you don't want (work, time, hassle, regulatory burdens, cost, risk).
- A best-practices approach to building a retirement program with which no board member, employee, or regulator can find fault.
- The real risks (beyond industry scare tactics) associated with 401k plans.
- A framework for modernizing old-style pensions with the right balance of cost and risk.
