This is Part 3 in a series covering key elements of SECURE 2.0, entered into law as part of the 2023 Appropriations Act (Division T).

We’ve just covered Automatic Enrollment and the Saver’s Match, one auto-feature, and one incentive with an auto-feature. Now we’ll focus on straight-out incentives to employers to start new plans.

This week we have the pleasure of chatting with Mateo Galindo Lozano, who has been a licensed clinical psychologist in Colombia since 2022 and is currently the Business Specialist at the Committee for Hispanic Children & Families in NYC. He helps licensed childcare providers improve their businesses through 1:1 consultation and training on business-related topics.

Happy Late January! The year’s off to a fast start, and there’s plenty happening in retirement savings. Warm up with a hot drink (Jan. 31 is National Hot Chocolate Day!) and dive into Illinois Secure Choice at five, updates from California, Connecticut, and Maine, a hot take on SECURE 2.0’s Saver’s Match, Hot Sauce, and Pix of the Week. Enjoy!
