Russell Investments to Match U.S. Government Contributions to Trump Accounts for Employees’ Children

SEATTLE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Russell Investments today announced that it will match the U.S. government’s $1,000 contribution made to newly established Trump Accounts for the eligible children of U.S. employees, reinforcing the firm’s long-standing commitment to financial security and long-term wealth building.

Under the program, Russell Investments will match the government’s initial contribution to newly established Trump Accounts, subject to plan terms and conditions. The firm will endeavor to contribute to accounts for employees’ newborn children even past the existing expiration of the bill, and asks lawmakers to continue to support these accounts as they are a necessary building block for future investing and wealth creation.

“Starting early helps to demystify investing,” said Zach Buchwald, Chairman and CEO of Russell Investments. “By matching government contributions to Trump Accounts, we’re helping employees start investing for their children when compounding has the greatest impact.”

The initiative builds on Russell Investments’ broader approach to financial well-being, which includes competitive retirement programs, access to investment education, and resources designed to support long-term savings outcomes. The firm believes early savings and disciplined investing are critical components for long-term financial resilience.
