We are thrilled to introduce the keynote sessions for our upcoming DC West, which promise to deliver profound insights and valuable information. Kelly Goldsmith will delve into new findings on financial scarcity, building on insights popularized by Nobel Prize winner Daniel Kahneman in his book "Thinking, Fast and Slow." Dr. Goldsmith's extensive research over the past two decades will shed light on how feelings of “not having enough” influence decision-making and behavior. This keynote will be particularly beneficial for plan sponsors, providing strategies to understand and address the psychology of scarcity, whether participants are saving for retirement, living on a fixed income, or simply concerned about their financial future.   Following this, we will have a Q&A session with Ali K., Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary of the U.S. Department of Labor’s Employee Benefits Security Administration (EBSA). Mr. Khawar will provide insights into recent Department of Labor developments, including the new investment advice fiduciary ruling, SECURE 2.0 deadlines, and investment-related guidance.   We look forward to seeing you there and are confident these keynotes will provide invaluable knowledge and practical takeaways. https://lnkd.in/eAbCzv_2

Sponsors' focus on risk transfers have left OCIO DB inflows wobbly but some hope IBM's reopening of its DB plan last year could augur more resilience for that segment.

OCIO train continues to pick up speed with total assets surging nearly 17% over the year ended March 31.
