A Morningstar report has found retirement savers’ contributions continued to suffer even as the markets rebounded from last year’s volatility.
The findings were reported in Morningstar’s 2021 “Target-Date Strategy Landscape Report,” which said flows into target-date funds (TDFs) and collective investment trusts (CITs) sank to $52.3 billion last year, a 59% decline from the previous year.
Total assets in target-date strategies amounted to $2.8 trillion at the end of last year, however, which was a reported increase of 20% from 2019. Retirement plan watchers would expect assets to rise with the markets.
