A Message From the Editor

Even with decades of progress toward workplace equality, the gender retirement gap persists. Employers can help bridge the gap to help bolster women’s long-term financial security. Automatic enrollment and more generous matching contributions for lower-earning employees can help. Offering financial wellness programs and investment coaching and tools can also empower women to make savvy retirement savings choices.
