Closing the

Retirement Savings Gap

Although billions in retirement tax breaks help build wealth,
many lower- and moderate-income workers are left out, with little or no savings at retirement

The Retirement Reform Group develops solutions to aid policymakers and other stakeholders working to make the retirement system serve everyone

About the Retirement Reform Group

The Retirement Reform Group (RRG) is an informal, nonpartisan working group of more than 100 active and retired employee benefits lawyers dedicated to strengthening retirement security for lower- and moderate-income workers.

  • Develop practices and policy solutions to close coverage and adequacy gaps for lower- and moderate-income workers
  • Share findings with policymakers and other stakeholders

Our Current Research Areas Include:

  • Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs)
  • Defined Contribution Plans (for example, 401(k) and 403(b) plans)
  • Defined Benefit Plans
  • Educating and Engaging Workers and Employers
  • Understanding Coverage Gaps and Affected Workers
