About three in 10 workers feel very prepared for retirement according to recent Secure Retirement Institute research, meaning seven in 10 workers saying they are either somewhat prepared or not at all prepared for retirement.
At the 2022 Retirement Industry Conference, set for May 11-13 at the Boston Park Plaza Hotel in Boston, retirement experts and industry leaders will examine the growing retirement unpreparedness in the U.S. and explore new strategies to help ensure more people are financially secure as they retire.
“Physical and financial health are more significant to people today than before the pandemic. The pandemic-induced economic challenges—like inflation—are undermining consumers’ ability to save for retirement and upending the plans retirees have made,” said David Levenson, president and CEO of LIMRA, LOMA, and LL Global. “Our industry serves an important purpose in helping clients adequately plan for retirement. This year’s conference will give leaders the opportunity to delve into factors that are shaping the future of the retirement market.”
