Abstract
Dealing with the reluctant investor examines the governance of defined contribution (DC) schemes with reference to investment choice and, in particular, the design of the default fund. We explain where and why the current system fails to support DC scheme members and what steps can be taken to address the problems. We examine the positive and negative features of current default models and draw attention to important innovations that have energized the DC investment world.
