BlackRock , the largest asset manager, has launched a new product to help workers their retirement savings into a regular income stream that mimics the paycheck they receive during their working years.
"We're talking about a revolution in retirement," BlackRock CEO Larry Fink wrote of LifePath Paycheck in his recent annual letter to investors.
While they receive that income, the rest of their retirement savings may continue to grow.
A recent BlackRock survey found 60% of employees worry they may outlive their retirement savings.
For now, the LifePath product is limited to plans offered through employers.
