Synthesis Report: Reemployment Synthesis
Topic Area: Reemployment
Findings:
The majority of reemployment interventions reduced weeks of benefit receipt and amount of benefits paid.
The reemployment interventions had varying degrees of effectiveness.
The Reemployment and Eligibility Assistance (REA) program boosted short-and long-term employment and earnings.
Job search assistance (JSA) services had favorable impacts on all outcomes examined, but employment and earnings impacts varied over time.
Reemployment bonuses appear to work in the short term, but their long-term effects are not known.
Lighter-touch interventions, such as profiling and changing employer contact requirements,yield more limited benefits.
Synthesis Report: Behavioral Finance Synthesis: Findings
Topic Area: Behavioral Finance: Retirement
Findings:
People have relatively limited knowledge about saving for retirement and can be induced to save more when provided with additional information.
Making retirement more salient, by having people think of themselves in retirement or providing a target retirement date, can increase intentions to save and alter investment choices.
People can become overwhelmed by the number of investment options they face; when this occurs, they tend to use simple rules to make decisions.
Synthesis Report: Behavioral Finance Synthesis: Gaps
Topic Area: Behavioral Finance: Retirement
Findings:
Many studies have demonstrated a relationship between default options and behavior. Taken together, these studies suggest that default options can affect investment behavior.
But no study produces strong causal evidence on the impacts of defaults on its own.
There is little evidence available on how the impacts of behavioral interventions designed to influence retirement savings vary by employee demographic characteristics or income.
There is little evidence available on how the impacts of behavioral interventions designed to influence retirement affect total savings.
