Those who said they did not have six months of emergency savings were also two times more likely to have taken a loan.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;With rising inflation, market volatility, and ongoing economic shifts, the importance of emergency savings funds and financial wellness programs becomes even more clear,&#8221; said Francisco Negr\u00f3n, head of Retirement Plan Services at T. <span class=\"xn-person\">Rowe Price<\/span>. &#8220;Plan sponsors play a critical role, especially under these circumstances, and can have a direct impact on the financial security of their employees.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Additional key findings include:<\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li>Participants who engage with <b>financial wellness<\/b> resources and retirement income tools, like T. <span class=\"xn-person\">Rowe Price&#8217;s<\/span> Retirement Income Planner or Social Security Optimizer, tend to demonstrate stronger savings behavior.<\/li>\n<li>Participants invested solely in a <b>target date product <\/b>are 20 times less likely to make an exchange and even when they do, 84% of them exchange into another target date fund.<\/li>\n<li>Twenty-three percent of participants aged 63 and older are currently invested in different target years than the assumed retirement age of 65. As participants age, an increasing percent are invested in a fund with a target date year other than the assumed retirement age of 65, illustrating a potential need for more <b>personalized target date solutions<\/b>.<\/li>\n<li>Fifty-five percent of retirement age participants leave the plan within four years of termination and another roughly 20% leave in the following five years. Meanwhile, 50% of plan sponsors prefer their participants keep their defined contribution plan balances in-plan when they retire. More plan sponsors are starting to offer solutions to better accommodate retirees and have expressed interest in implementing <b>retirement income solutions.<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Negr\u00f3n adds, &#8220;Our purpose in delivering this report is simple: to equip plan sponsors and financial consultants with the insights they need to improve the financial futures of their participants. Ultimately, T. <span class=\"xn-person\">Rowe Price<\/span> is dedicated to helping every participant get on the path toward better retirement outcomes, because everyone deserves to feel confident about their financial future.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\n        <b>ABOUT T. <span class=\"xn-person\">ROWE PRICE<\/span><\/b>\n      <\/p>\n<p>Founded in 1937, T. <span class=\"xn-person\">Rowe Price<\/span> (NASDAQ \u2013 GS: TROW) helps individuals and institutions around the world achieve their long-term investment goals.
