Job changes leave Americans' retirement savings drifting

Original: Job changes lead to ‘retirement drift’ for Americans’ savings

Reports across multiple US outlets highlight a phenomenon being called 'retirement drift', in which workers who change jobs fail to move or consolidate their retirement savings, causing accounts to be forgotten, lose momentum, or sit in poorly performing plans. With job changes common in the American labour market, commentators warn the pattern quietly erodes long-term savings for many households.

Why now: The story is circulating widely as workers increasingly switch jobs and face confusion over what to do with employer retirement plans.
