From EBN‘s sister publication Money Management Executive: The chairman of the Senate Special Committee on Aging has called for more scrutiny of target-date retirement funds after several 2010 target-date funds posted huge losses in 2008.
“While it may be too late for those who already have suffered substantial and irreversible financial losses, it is vital that aggressive and timely action be taken to protect the retirement income of all Americans,” said Chairman Herb Kohl (D-Wisc.), in letters to Securities and Exchange Commission Chairman Mary Schapiro and U.S. Labor Secretary Hilda Solis.
