NEW YORK, April 10, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Changes in employee benefits, longer life spans, uncertainty around Social Security and Medicare, and the rising costs of health care have made planning for and funding retirement a challenge for many Americans. But the National Retirement Planning Coalition – a group of prominent financial industry and advocacy organizations – says that there is hope, and it all begins with a financial roadmap and a plan for savings.

The coalition – which is spearheaded by the Insured Retirement Institute (IRI) – has worked to organize National Retirement Planning Week® — a national effort to help consumers focus on their financial needs in retirement. AXA Equitable is a proud supporter of National Retirement Planning Week® 2012, which takes place from April 9 to 13.

"AXA Equitable strongly supports this week of education and awareness," said Nick Lane, president of the Retirement Savings division at AXA Equitable. "Retirement planning can be challenging and every day priorities and pressures have a tendency to lead many people to avoid or delay putting together a comprehensive plan."

"The good news is that today's mobile apps and online tools can help break down those barriers and make it easier for people to become informed and take the first steps toward retirement planning, at their pace and in a way that is comfortable and convenient for them."

In support of National Retirement Planning Week, AXA Equitable has compiled a suite of mobile retirement planning apps, tools and online resources, including:  

  • Virtual retirement consultations featuring experienced financial professionals who help guide individuals through the process of determining how long their retirement savings may last;
  • Retirement income calculators for BlackBerry® and iPhone® users;
  • SSA Social Security Benefits Calculator;
  • Retirement Shortfall Calculators and more.

These tools and resources are available on the company's website AXA-Equitable.com.

About National Retirement Planning Week® 2012: National Retirement Planning Week® 2012 will take place from April 9 to 13. Held during financial literacy month, National Retirement Planning Week® is led by the National Retirement Planning Coalition—a group of prominent financial industry, education and advocacy organizations that have joined together to increase awareness of the need for comprehensive retirement planning.

About the National Retirement Planning Coalition: The National Retirement Planning Coalition recognizes that the need to educate Americans on retirement planning is an ongoing effort and is committed to making retirement planning education a national priority. The National Retirement Planning Week® and other coalition activities are intended to demonstrate that it is possible to "Retire On Your Terms" if comprehensive retirement plans are properly developed and managed. To support these education efforts, the coalition maintains a year-round website – www.retireonyourterms.org – offering the latest resources to both consumers and financial professionals to help them stay focused on long-term financial goals.

The coalition is headed by IRI, and includes America Saves, American Council of Life Insurers (ACLI), American Savings Education Council (ASEC), Americans for Secure Retirement (ASR), Center for Retirement Research at Boston College, Defined Contribution Institutional Investment Association (DCIIA), Employee Benefit Research Institute (EBRI), Financial Services Institute (FSI), Financial Services Roundtable (FSR), Jump$tart Coalition, National Association for Fixed Annuities (NAFA), NICSA, Retirement Income Industry Association (RIIA), The American College, The Aspen Institute, and the Women's Institute for a Secure Retirement.

About the Insured Retirement Institute: The Insured Retirement Institute (IRI) is a not-for-profit organization that for twenty years has been a mainstay of service, commitment and collaboration within the insured retirement industry.  Today, IRI is considered to be an authoritative source of information pertaining to annuities, insured retirement strategies and retirement planning.
