Retirement
With Americans living longer, healthier, and more active lives, retirement planning and saving are more important than ever. Through employer-sponsored retirement plans, businesses can provide benefits to help support the long-term financial security of their employees.
Five Things Businesses and Employees Should Know About Retirement
The U.S. Chamber is leading efforts to simplify and strengthen the nation’s retirement system for both employers and employees.
America Needs Flexible, Market‑Driven Retirement Options
The American economy and investors benefit when public and private capital markets are strong. The Chamber supports reinvigorating public markets. We also support appropriately expanding access to private investment opportunities. Both will allow Americans to be part of U.S. financial growth and innovation while also helping U.S. companies to grow and create jobs. Recognizing that there is a wide range of public and private market investment options, the Chamber stands ready to work with the Department of Labor (DOL), the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), and Congress to responsibly expand pathways for American investors to diversify and grow their retirement and investment portfolios.
