With half of all working Americans not covered by a retirement plan at their workplace,many states across the country are taking an interest in Universal Retirement Savings Accounts (UVRAs). UVRAs make it easier for individuals to save for retirement through work and for businesses without pension plans to offer one to their employees.

The UVRA Update, brought to you by the Economic Opportunity Institute, brings together the latest ideas, developments and information for state leaders, agency staff, advocates and others interested in this exciting new policy development and other related initiatives.

We hope you’ll find the UVRA Update to be useful and informative – feel free to share it with others who might be interested.
