The Setting Every Community Up for Retirement Enhancement (SECURE) Act, signed into law on Dec. 20, 2019 by President Trump, is the most expansive piece of retirement legislation since the Pension Protection Act of 2006. Effective Jan. 1, 2020, the law will have some impact on nearly every retirement plan and participants with numerous provisions intended to increase retirement security, expand plan coverage, encourage retirement savings and decrease plan costs. It offers small businesses tax incentives to set up automatic enrollment in retirement plans for its workers, or allows them to join multiple employer plans, where they can band together with other companies to offer retirement accounts to their employees in the first place.
