Employees want to lead life — at work and beyond — on their own terms, and that’s influencing how they’re investing in their retirement funds.
Eighty-seven percent of retirement plan participants want their investments to be aligned with their values, according to Schroder’s 2022 Retirement Survey. That’s leading the majority of employees (74%) to seek out investment options that follow environmental, social and governance goals. Those employees would also contribute more if offered an ESG option.
