What's New from EBRI
Company stock in 401(k) plans: 401(k) participants’ investments in company stock continued at historically low levels in 2014, according to the latest findings from the EBRI/ICI 401(k) database.
Only 7 percent of 401(k) assets were invested in company stock at year-end 2014, the same share as in 2012 and 2013. This share has fallen by 63 percent since 1999 when company stock accounted for 19 percent of assets.
Recently hired 401(k) participants contributed to this trend: they tended to be less likely to hold company stock. At year-end 2014, less than 30 percent of recently hired 401(k) plan participants in plans offering company stock held company stock, compared with about 44 percent of all 401(k) participants in plans offering company stock.
