Voya Financial Welcomes Executive Order Promoting Retirement-Savings Access for American Workers

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Voya Financial, Inc. (NYSE: VOYA) a leading retirement, employee benefits and investment management company, today welcomed an executive order that facilitates retirement-savings access for millions of Americans who currently lack adequate options. The order directs the U.S. Treasury Department to establish a new platform highlighting high-quality, low-cost, private-sector IRAs, which the company called a meaningful step forward in expanding retirement savings opportunities.

The platform would provide individuals with information about enrolling in private sector individual retirement accounts, based on factors such as low cost and no contribution or minimum balance requirements. For taxpayers who qualify, the new accounts may enable them to take advantage of the Saver’s Match, a direct Treasury matching contribution of up to $1,000 annually, that takes effect January 1, 2027.

“At Voya, we have long believed that every American deserves a clear path to financial confidence, and that starts with access,” said Jay Kaduson, CEO, Workplace Solutions, Voya Financial. “The newly announced Treasury platform directly addresses one of the most persistent gaps in our retirement system — the millions of individuals who want to save but simply don’t have a straightforward way to do it. We welcome this initiative and look forward to engaging with the Treasury Department as this program moves forward.”

“The Saver’s Match is a powerful incentive that removes income as a barrier to building retirement security, and the new platform gives people a practical way to act on it,” said Amy Vaillancourt, President, Retirement, Voya Financial. “Voya looks forward to evaluating how our retirement and wealth management solutions could support this framework, while closely monitoring Treasury guidance as it develops.”

Voya will continue to track regulatory developments in response to the Executive Order and will provide updates as appropriate.
