<Title>MSRP Nationwide retirement webinars</Title>
<Tagline>Featured webinars for September 2023</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content"><div>Please see the information below about the upcoming retirement webinars from MSRP Nationwide and how to register: </div><div><br></div><div><p><strong><span>“Catch the Match,
    It’s Back!”</span></strong><strong></strong></p>
    
    <p><span>·<span>        
    </span></span><span>As of July 1, 2023, the State Match was reinstated
    for eligible employee deferrals/contributions to MSRP’s 457(b), 401(k), or
    403(b) plans or State higher education institution's 457(b), 401(k), or 403(b)
    plan (MSRP, TIAA, or Fidelity Investments), up to $600 per eligible employee,
    for the fiscal year. Attend this webinar to learn how you may be eligible
    and additional details to qualify.</span></p>
    
    <p><span>·<span>        
    </span></span>Please note:
    eligible employees are those who are current members of the <span><strong>Maryland State Employee's Pension
    System</strong>. Employees enrolled in the Optional Retirement Plan (ORP) are not
    eligible for the Match. </span></p>
    
    <p><strong> </strong></p>
    
    <p><strong><span>“Frauds and Scams”</span></strong><strong></strong></p>
    
    <p><span>·<span>        
    </span></span><span>Identity theft, fraud, and scams could derail your
    financial life if undetected. We cover what to look out for, including some
    lesser-known schemes, and what to do if it happens to you.</span></p>
    
    <p> </p>
    
    <p><strong><span>“Managing Market
    Volatility”</span></strong><strong></strong></p>
    
    <p><span>·<span>        
    </span></span><span>A
    volatile market can make even the most seasoned investors unsure. However,
    navigating the ups and downs of the market doesn’t have to be so tricky and
    nerve wracking. This presentation will help you make sense of the recent market
    turbulence and discuss strategies to manage market swings in a portfolio, and
    what this may mean for your financial plan. </span></p>
    
    <p> </p>
    
    <p><strong><span>“Borrowing Against
    YOUR Future: What You Need to Know”</span></strong><strong></strong></p>
    
    <p><span>·<span>        
    </span></span><span>Borrowing
    money from your MSRP 457(b), 401(k), or 403(b) plans before you retire is a big
    decision. It can affect your savings progress and long-term retirement goals.
    It’s important to learn about the impact of borrowing, terms and conditions,
    fees, and serious repercussions if you were to default on this obligation.</span></p>
