In recent years IBM ordsprog

en In recent years, IBM has been following a global strategy to move toward defined-contribution retirement plans for both existing employees and new hires. These changes are consistent with this direction and will give us more predictable retirement plan costs, along with benefits that remain ahead of — but more in line with — our competitors.

en We have very competitive benefit plans at Alcoa, and we periodically evaluate the level of competitiveness to ensure our plans are in line with the marketplace. We will move to a defined contribution system for new hires - a contribution to a 401(k) plan of three percent of salary and bonus, in addition to our match programs on the first six percent contributed - that gives employees significant flexibility and portability of their retirement savings.

en We're taking these actions to better control retirement plan expenses, position the company for business growth and competitive strength, and preserve employees' earned retirement benefits. We also believe these are prudent and balanced steps at a time of uncertainty and conflicting legislative and regulatory directions about defined-benefit retirement plans in the United States.

en We're taking these actions to better control retirement plan expenses, position the company for business growth and competitive strength, and preserve employees' earned retirement benefits, while instituting a leading-edge 401(k) plan that will be one of the richest in the country and a standard in the United States. We also believe these are prudent and balanced steps at a time of uncertainty and conflicting legislative and regulatory directions about defined benefit retirement plans in the United States.

en As many companies are switching from traditional pension plans to defined contribution plans, more investors today are responsible for managing their own retirement funds. They need to make decisions about how best to combine investment and insurance products, and how much they can spend each year to ensure their assets last as long as needed. But few investors understand the risks they will face in retirement. Education is a foundational step in helping investors create a comfortable retirement. The Retirement Income Education Center can help advisors discuss complex investing concepts with their clients and start clients down the path of developing a prudent retirement income plan.

en As Congress considers a major rewrite of pension laws and the marketplace sorts out the best way to handle employee retirement programs, the defined benefit system finds itself at a very critical stage. Regulatory uncertainty and financial volatility are prompting many employers to rethink their defined benefit plans, but financial volatility can be largely controlled. Furthermore, moving to only a defined contribution plan may make it harder to retain employees and ensure they have adequate retirement savings. Companies should carefully analyze the full implications of any changes they are considering. Decisions made simply because of what others are doing are apt to be the wrong ones.

en In your 50s, instead of panicking about the income you need to build up in the next 15 or 20 years, your best move is to concentrate on getting your costs down. If you will need less to live on in retirement, then you won't need to risk desperate accumulation strategies now. Right? That's a pretty basic point that everyone seems to miss.

en Without a doubt, the Bush push for allowing employees to invest some of their retirement monies in the markets allows individuals to gain more control of their retirement funds. Working for two employers -- the U.S. Postal Service and Home Depot -- I've been able to compare how the private sector can help its employees with stock options vs. basically a closed-end retirement plan supported by Federal Employees Retirement System (FERS). Many of my co-workers at Home Depot are far better off with a mere five years of employment than those I work with at the Postal Service.

en Defined contribution plans are extremely popular with American workers, most of whom use them as their primary retirement-savings vehicle. Despite this popularity, however, most workers are not saving enough or investing wisely, and many are increasingly at risk of not being able to achieve a worry-free retirement. We can and must do a better job of helping them.

en People are still very concerned about where they are in the planning cycle, especially considering the fact that they must plan and save for longer years in retirement. Increased longevity, combined with concerns over retirement savings, have created a new retirement reality for many people.

en Current industry data shows that American workers aren't saving enough in their workplace-provided retirement programs, and our survey indicates that this lack of preparedness extends from the accumulation phase of retirement planning into the distribution phase. Even those who are conscientious savers and investors, including Baby Boomers now aged 55 to 58, aren't prepared to convert their retirement savings into a predictable retirement paycheck that they can't outlive.

en Planning for retirement is not something we can put off until a later date -- the time to plan is now. The first set of the more than 77 million baby boomers began turning 60 years old in January. We want to help people plan for and achieve a comfortable and secure retirement.

en They need to move retirement to the front of the line. No one will pay for retirement, but the kids can get aid for college.

en We are very pleased that Alaska has named Buck as its retirement plan consultant. With our 90-year history of providing retirement plan services to public-sector clients, we look forward to working with Alaska to meet the retirement needs of the State.

en We have decided to substantially alter the pension benefits for current U.S. salaried employees so that we can provide a competitive and fair benefit but also reduce the financial risks to GM. While we will announce specific details early next month, we intend to freeze accrued benefits in the current plan and implement a new plan for future accruals which could include a defined contribution or cash balance plan.
