    Technology is a means to an end: "We are not one app away from financial literacy.'

    — DAN IANNICOLA

    There are six issues with retirement security: Access, leakage, longevity risk, home equity, financial capability, Social Security.

    — FORMER SEN. KENT CONRAD

    "The best way to make yourself felt' is through competent engagement.

    — ASHBEL C. WILLIAMS JR.

    Most institutional investors have way too much liquidity ... they're not going to have to liquidate 80% of portfolios overnight.

    — HAMILTON E. "TONY' JAMES

    There will be a swing back to DB because people who have only had a DC plan will retire and not have enough money.

    — GREG WILLIAMSON

    Asset allocations have diverged between public and private pension managers.

    — OLIVIA S. MITCHELL

    The Pension Protection Act "overshot and overdid it' because it had an "undue focus on protecting the PBGC.'

    — CHARLES E.F. MILLARD

    The root of operational problems at the fund can be summed up as "spreadsheet.'

    — SCOTT EVANS

    Permanent austerity makes it impossible to fund retirement plans.

    — TERESA GHILARDUCCI

    "Political risk is the No. 1 risk to our pension plan.'

    — DEREK DOBSON

    Children should start learning about money "as soon as the Tooth Fairy comes.'

    — ANNAMARIA LUSARDI

    In a low-interest-rate environment, this is the time to run a government deficit.

    — TERESA GHILARDUCCI

    Monetary policy not the culprit. Weak demand causing low returns for pension plans.

    — TERESA GHILARDUCCI

    Financial illiteracy is expensive. How do we want to pay for it? Making up for mistakes, or paying for education?

    — ANNAMARIA LUSARDI

    Artificial intelligence is going to change the way we look at asset allocation.

    - GREG WILLIAMSON

    What is financial literacy? A vision for the future.

    — ANNAMARIA LUSARDI

    The real discount rate for pension liabilities should be 0% to 2%, "But I don't expect most of you are doing that.'

    — ROGER IBBOTSON

    25% of hedge fund assets will morph out of hedge funds into new vehicles with longer lockups, lower fees.

    — HAMILTON E. "TONY' JAMES

    Pension adequacy is critically important and should be a major issue in the U.S. presidential election.

    — FORMER SEN. TOM HARKIN

    "We're facing the most underreported crisis of our time.'

    — FORMER SEN. TOM HARKIN

    The key to solving retirement crisis is to strengthen social security, private pension and personal savings.

    — FORMER SEN. TOM HARKIN

    Defined contribution plans don't answer the question that consumers should ask: "When am I going to die?'

    — GREG SMITH
