$1 out of ever $3 in household assets is held in retirement savings, reports the Investment Company Institute.

Some of these numbers are staggering, but they are worth documenting:

  • $3.4 trillion is held in IRAs, and $3.4 trillion is held in defined contribution pension plans
  • Retirement assets didn't fall as much as the overall equity markets did
  • A little less than half of all assets in IRAs and DC pensions are held in mutual funds
