NEW YORK, Nov. 13, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Institutional Investor is pleased to announce the launch of the Retirement Institute, an exclusive private membership designed to address the challenges faced by the U.S. retirement system. The Institute convenes the nation's largest retirement plan sponsors, plan advisors, and industry providers for candid discussions and the development of innovative solutions aimed at improving retirement outcomes for millions of Americans.

The Retirement Institute emerges at a pivotal time for the U.S. retirement landscape. With the decline of defined benefit plans and increasing reliance on defined contribution plans, the role of plan sponsors and advisors has never been more critical. The Institute's mission is to provide a platform for key stakeholders to collaborate and generate practical solutions for enhancing the sustainability of America's retirement system.

"The Retirement Institute is a direct response to the evolving needs of our members in the retirement space," said Lauren Feldman, Managing Director, Head of Wealth at Institutional Investor. "By providing a unique, private environment, we enable plan sponsors, advisors, and asset managers to engage in open dialogue and share valuable insights without external pressures."

The Institute integrates elements of the Defined Contribution Institute and the Retirement Plan Advisor Institute, creating a synergistic environment for both plan sponsors and advisors. Events and research initiatives will focus on critical topics such as investment strategies, participant education, communication, administration, and holistic wellness, with an emphasis on creating actionable takeaways for attendees.

"We are proud to bring together the key players in the retirement industry to tackle the issues that matter most," said Katarina Storfer, Managing Director, Head of Americas. "The Retirement Institute will be the cornerstone for innovative thought leadership and collaborative solutions in the U.S. retirement sector."
