Financial Finesse, the nation’s leading US provider of unbiased workplace financial education, has released its third and final special research report for 2011 on the state of employees’ retirement preparedness. Report shows employees continue to make improvements to finances and increase focus on retirement but are not doing enough to adapt to the “new normal” Download a PDF of the release here. The report found that the overall state of US employees’ retirement preparedness remains low despite a positive trend in employees improving their finances and putting heavier emphasis on retirement planning. According to the report: • Most employees have never run a retirement projection despite their income or age. Fifty-seven percent of employees at pre-retirement age, between 55 and 64, said they had not run a calculation to estimate whether or not they were on track to replace 80% of their annual pre-retirement income (or their goal) in retirement. This number grew with younger generations: 68% of employees age 45-54, 67% of employees age 30-44, and 73% of employees under 30 indicated they had not run a calculation and didn’t know if they were on track to retire.
