I think that ultimately, and I applaud the DUL and Treasury and the work that they've done, for example, with QLACs, and of having deferred annuities play a role within DC plans, specifically within the default, within targeted funds.
Yes.
It's Qualified Longevity Annuity Contract.
It's basically almost you think of it as an insurance here for old age funds.
that it only kicks in at a fairly advanced age, between 80 and 85.
To me, the most interesting finding is, first of all, the broad-based appeal of social impact investing.
But it's also, we spoke about 401k plans and the connection there is saying that 34% of investors think that if their company offers ESG investments or socially responsible investments, it makes them look at their organization more favorably.
So I think it's a kind of a call to action for organizations, for plan sponsors to more proactively include social impact investing within 401k plans.
So it's a benefit for employers as well to offer those.
That's right.
It becomes a part of attracting and retaining key talents.
Yeah, and something that we hear both from investors and even plan sponsors, and I think that there's an opportunity for myth-busting here.
There's now great evidence around strong performance of ESG or socially responsible investments.
There's a great meta-study, for example, that looks at over...
2,000 other studies, and they find non-negative correlation between performance and sustainability or socially responsible investing in 90% of the cases.
Yeah, I think talk to your financial advisor on social responsible investing and how you can incorporate that with investment portfolios.
And also, I think it's something for plan sponsors, for organizations to consider to include this in your 401k plans.
