Defined contribution plans are one of the most common ways American workers save for retirement. Yet statistics show DC plans are not benefitting everyone equally. Data from the Federal Reserve, the Bureau of Labor Statistics and elsewhere suggest low-income workers, women and people of color tend to have significantly less access to retirement plans and accumulate less retirement plan assets relative to other demographics.
