What makes a workplace retirement plan worthwhile for everyone involved? Director of Business Development and retirement services expert Justin Wagner, AIF®, joins us to explain how a plan can be designed around a company’s goals, creating opportunities for business owners to save for retirement while helping attract, retain, and support employees. We also look at what happens after the plan is established and how employers can help their teams understand and use the benefit.

Then, we take a deeper dive into a busy stretch for markets. With inflation progress showing signs of stalling, Treasury yields near levels not seen since 2007, and oil prices adding another wrinkle to the Federal Reserve’s decision-making, we examine what investors are watching. Plus, as increasingly powerful AI models raise new questions about autonomy and safeguards, we discuss why some technology leaders are calling for a more measured pace of development.

Join hosts Nick Antonucci, CVA, CEPA, Director of Research, and Managing Associates K.C. Smith, CFP®, CEPA, and D.J. Barker, CWS®, and Kelly-Lynne Scalice, a seasoned communicator and host, on Henssler Money Talks as they explore key financial strategies to help investors navigate market uncertainty.
