Data Notes: 

When attempting to make comparisons across programs, it is important to take into consideration variations in program design. Programs are not identical, and these variations will contribute to differences in performance. The employers covered and default contribution rates are examples of program design differences (see the design features infographic posted below).

Select metrics also may not be available for all state programs. Select Q/Q and Y/Y Growth Metrics may not yet be available for MyCTSavings, Maryland$aves, the Colorado SecureSavings Program, MERIT, and RetirePathVA, and in certain instances for other state programs. MyCTSavings opened to all eligible employers in April 2022, Maryland$aves opened in September 2022, the Colorado SecureSavings Program opened in January 2023, RetirePathVA opened in June 2023, and MERIT opened in January 2024. By comparison, CalSavers, Illinois Secure Choice, and OregonSaves have been open for several years.
