"I have been particularly impressed by DCIIA’s diversity and inclusion initiatives. They have advanced this work with a level of purpose and intentionality that seeks to enhance access to retirement security for all American workers."

"I think DCIIA is one of the best-kept secrets in the advisor community. Membership requires a nominal investment for the return. It really pays for itself in that you get ongoing access to insights from the top people in the retirement industry. My senior ERISA consultant tells me he’s locked down when it comes to our DCIIA membership – there’s no way we can go without the access to people and thought leadership that it provides."
