“The government should design policy to encourage good annuities, which are uniquely positioned to help retirement savers and retirees ensure they do not run out of money in retirement.”

“Having more transparency in the annuity market would generally benefit customers, as products are currently hard to compare, despite a handful of services designed to help people vet annuities side-by-side. There is room for the market to grow, and private-equity firms likely see the possibility of annuities increasingly being considered within defined contribution plans.”

“People might often think they have to make major modifications, when in fact, they probably don’t. I’m a big believer in the idea that making a few small adjustments — especially in a community setting — can go a long way, help people be better communicators, and lead to greater inclusivity.”
