For most Americans, the primary source of retirement savings comes through workplace plans. Despite perceptions that others may save through brokerage accounts or insurance policies, statistics show workplace plans are the cornerstone of retirement security. Individuals are 15 times more likely to open and fund a 401(k) at work than to set up an IRA independently, with over 56% of American workers participating in a workplace retirement plan.[1] These plans provide a clear path toward financial stability in retirement and reduce reliance on Social Security alone.
