Small businesses offering more retirement options
Financial services firms are pushing retirement-planning services to small businesses, an area that has long lagged behind big companies in providing for their employees.
Financial firms, including Charles Schwab & Co., Fidelity Investments and Wachovia Corp., are cutting fees and simplifying procedures to attract more small businesses to set up employee-retirement accounts, ranging from Simple IRAs to 401(k)s. For employees, such moves mean retirement benefits are increasingly common at small businesses, a segment where retirement plans have long been a rarity.
