【速報】トランプ大統領が401k改革に大胆踏み切り—オルタナティブ投資解禁へ大統領令署名
米国退職金制度に歴史的転換点。トランプ大統領が401kプランへのオルタナティブ投資解禁に向けた大統領令に署名する方針を固めた。
■ 退職金のゲームチェンジャー
従来の株式・債券中心のポートフォリオから、仮想通貨やプライベートエクイティなどへの投資が可能に。金融業界は早くも「新しい手数料搾取のフロンティア」と舌なめずりしている。
■ ウォール街vs.メインストリート
「これで一般投資家もヘッジファンド並みのリスクを取れる」と推進派。一方で「カジノ化する退職金」と批判する声も。金融リテラシー不足の参加者にとっては危険な賭けになる可能性も。
2025年夏—アメリカン・ドリームの新たな章か、それとも次なる金融危機の火種か。少なくとも弁護士とファンドマネージャーはどちらに転んでも勝ち組だ。
