The new Labor Department rule changes that, however. Good advisors are likely making an honest effort to do what's best for their clients, but hopefully the Labor Department rule would "bring up the bottom to a better quality," Reish said. However, many financial companies dispute the necessity of the Labor Department rule.

BlackRock and State Street Global Advisors, two of the largest asset managers, also announced target-date funds with retirement income annuity options.

Three years after the Secure Act of 2019 ushered in the first major changes to the U.S. retirement system in more than a decade, more modifications are now on their way. Dozens of retirement-related provisions collectively known as "Secure 2.0" are included in a $1.7 trillion omnibus appropriations bill that received approval from the House on Friday — following the Senate's nod on Thursday — and will head to President Joe Biden for his signature. Secure 2.0 "addresses gaps that have left some people on the sidelines of retirement savings, unable to access the workplace retirement plans that do so much good in establishing the capability and habit of savings," said Susan Neely, president and CEO of the American Council of Life Insurers. The Secure 2.0 provisions are intended to build on improvements to the retirement system that were implemented under the 2019 Secure Act. Those changes included giving part-time workers better access to retirement benefits and increasing the age when required minimum distributions, or RMDs, from certain retirement accounts must start — to age 72 from 70½.
