Following its decision to pull out of the world's largest climate-finance alliance, the investment firm is being targeted by a new TV ad, aimed directly at its customers with the message: "If it's bad for the environment, it's bad for your retirement."

Since most employees do not want their employer to know how much debt they have, the following options are all arm's length alternatives that should not cross the line concerning employee confidentiality.

A defined contribution plan puts the employee in charge of planning for their own retirement, but getting the right people in front of employees can help win them over in taking full advantage of a company retirement plan.
