When Retirement Savings meets Economic Crisis: Lessons from COVID-19

<p>Nearly 50 million Americans – disproportionately, people of color — do not have access to a retirement savings account at work.&nbsp; And for millions who do have access to a workplace retirement savings account, their 401(k) is their only form of savings.</p> <p>The economic crisis caused by COVID-19 is forcing many to ask critical questions about the retirement savings system in the US.&nbsp; Why doesn’t every American have access to a tax-advantaged savings account to invest and grow their money?&nbsp; What amount of liquidity is the right amount– for emergencies both big and small?

Emergency Savings – Are we Re-Learning Lessons or Have we Reached its Limits?

<p>While emergency savings offer a financial lifeline for households to cope with the unexpected, 28% of U.S. adults had no emergency savings going into the COVID-19 crisis. &nbsp;The crisis has hit certain populations particularly hard: only about a third or fewer of Black and Hispanic adults, those younger than 30, and those with no college experience say they have a rainy day fund to cover three month’s worth of expenses.</p> <p>To help families recover from crises — and to build long-term resilience for future ones – policymakers, employers, and financial services institutions need to implement tools that make emergency savings accessible and automatic. &nbsp;Join us as we discuss lessons from behavioral economics, applications in government and financial services, and the realities of financial decision-making at the household level. &nbsp;What emergency savings tools to enable people across America to cope during this economic recovery – and create a stable, equitable savings system that can weather the next one?</p>
