On the job, in-service, non-hardship, under age 59½, 401(k) transfers to safety are salvaging retirement plans from market risk, and combined with the new Roth conversion privileges, they are helping people to develop retirement income for life, income-tax-free.

Don't leave your clients' 401(k)s to chance. You may use the following sample letter to make employers aware of the...
