Ariel/Hewitt Study• The Ariel/Aon Hewitt study, 401(k) Plans in Living Color II,
examined the defined contribution (DC) plans of 60 large U.S. organizations, representing 2.4 million employees.
• Just two-thirds of Hispanics and 68 percent of African Americans contributed to a DC plan in 2010, while 79 percent of whites and 80 percent of Asian workers did so.
• Fully 8.8 percent of African-Americans took hardship withdrawals in 2010, compared to 3.2 percent of Hispanics, 1.7 percent of whites and just 1.2 percent of Asian workers.
• Half of all African-Americans and 40 percent of Hispanic employees carried a loan balance at the end of 2010, compared to just 22 percent of Asians and 26 percent of whites.
• Two-thirds (63 percent) of African-Americans and 57 percent of Hispanics who left their employer in 2010 cashed out their balances. In comparison, 39 percent of white employees, and just over a third (34 percent) of Asian workers did the same.
