Fred Reish, a partner in the firm's Los Angeles office, was interviewed for the May 2012 issue of PIMCO DC Dialogue. In the question and answer article, Fred discussed retirement plan issues on the agenda in Washington, D.C., and how they might be affected by the upcoming election.

Fred also discussed how the need to balance the U.S. federal budget may lead to lower limits on the amount that high-income earners can contribute to defined contribution plans in the future, and how Washington supports income projections on statements. He also noted that government officials may back retirement income solutions and education to improve DC plans.
