U.S. Retirement Savings Plummet — How Do Yours Compare?

Inflation’s hitting Americans — and their retirement savings — hard.

The average balance in employer-sponsored contribution plans dropped more than 20% last year, according to new research from Vanguard Group reported by Fox Business.

Vanguard tracks roughly five million retirement accounts and found that the average balance for 401(k)s and 403(b)s was $112,572 in 2022 — a $30,000 dip from the year before. The decline was “driven primarily by the decrease in equity and bond markets,” per the report.

Additionally, one in three survey participants had an account balance of less than $10,000, while one in four had one exceeding $100,000 and just 12% had one of $250,000 or more.

The number of Americans taking a hardship withdrawal from their employer-sponsored accounts is also on the rise: 2.8% did so in 2022 — up from the 2% that did before the pandemic, according to the report.

Inflation has led consumers to withdraw an average of $616.73 from their savings accounts to keep up with their expenses, according to a New York Wealth Watch Survey reported by USA Today.
