PSCA 52nd Annual Survey of Profit Sharing and 401k plans

Take Control with Your 401(k)

"It was the consensus of our committee members that Take Control with Your 401(k) has a very clearly written section on every important 401(k) topic...so we bought a copy for everyone!" Dennis Buster, Everett Charles Technologies, Inc.

David L. Wray's book,
Take Control with Your 401(k) has been revised to reflect the changes that have occurred since the book was originally published in 2002.

Take Control with Your 401(k) is available for $13 ($5 for PSCA members).

Welcome to the
Profit Sharing/401k Council of America

PSCA is a non-profit association of 1,200 companies that sponsor defined contribution plans for five million employees. PSCA offers unbiased best-practices information, research and technical assistance.

For over 60 years, the Profit Sharing/401k Council of America (PSCA) has been the Washington voice of companies that provide defined contribution programs for their employees. The current Congress will determine the future of the 401(k) system. We need to strengthen our voice. We need you to join us now.
