Saving for retirement would be much more accessible if 401(k)s were tied to the employee instead of the employer — which is exactly what one company aims to change.
Icon Savings is a provider of portable 401(k) savings accounts, which empower employees to manage their funds in one place, regardless of employer or job movement — something that could help boost savings and create greater access to retirement plans, which have been on a rapid decline over the past five years, says Icon Savings founder Laurie Rowley.
