Industry-wide challenges in offering retirement income funds in DC: Anticipating questions and preparing responses
Source: J.P. Morgan Asset Management.Past performance is not an indication of future performance. The manager seeks to achieve the stated objectives. There can be no guarantee the objectives will be met.
Operational Challenges
Communications
Plan Design To-Dos
How do you implement this type of fund in plan? Participants can set up systematic withdrawals to receive periodic payments.
What are the operational challenges? Some but not all record keepers offer systematic withdrawals and have periodic payment processing capabilities. A single fund withdrawal capability and a straight through processing (“Easy Button”) are not offered in DC while they are available
on retail platforms.
Partial Withdrawals: What actions do plan sponsor take? Plan amendment needs to be made if partial withdrawals are not currently allowed.
IPS update: How do you think about selecting and monitoring retirement income solutions in plan? IPS amendment may be needed to reflect unique nature of these products, if applicable.
RMD requirements Retirees older than 70 ½ are required to calculate and satisfy their RMDs separately for each plan and withdraw that amount from each plan they
have accounts with. This requirement should be clearly communicated and enforced.
Annual withdrawal insights The annual sample spend down amount needs to be effectively communicated to participants. This information is public.
