Student debt has become a central issue in the 2020 presidential campaign. Legislation is being introduced to address the crisis. And the U.S. Department of Education is also considering some big changes for borrowers.

The Secure Act, signed into law days ago by President Trump, aims at boosting access to workplace retirement plans such as 401(k) plans, yet may fall short of expectations.

Roth accounts may make sense for a larger number of Americans due to low historical income-tax rates and the U.S. budget deficit, which some experts believe will necessitate the government raising tax rates in the future.

CNBC's Eamon Javers and political reporter Brian Schwartz join the "Power Lunch" team to break down the latest presidential campaign fundraising numbers.

Mike Bloomberg is taking aim at President Trump with a TV ad buy that could be worth $10 million. Bloomberg's plan to run an ad during the National Football League's most watched game of the season comes as he focuses his attention on the delegate-rich Super Tuesday states. Their primaries are scheduled for March 3.

Mike Bloomberg is outspending his rivals in the race to become the 2020 Democratic Presidential Nominee. His campaign spent $188 million during the fourth quarter of 2019. That's more money than any of his democratic competitors have raised over the entirety of this election cycle. But there's another big difference between those candidates and Bloomberg. Bloomberg didn't compete in the Iowa caucuses. Here's why and how he may still qualify for upcoming debates.

While institutional investors have pulled more than $3 billion from the Camas, Washington-based firm in the wake of Ken Fisher's comments, retail clients have had a more muted reaction. Here's why individual investors may be slow to divest.

Financial advisors are turning to a variety of options to help clients prepare for the potential cost of help with daily activities like eating and dressing — otherwise known as long-term care.

Insurance is an essential part of a comprehensive financial plan, but fee-only advisors have blanched at using commission-based products to solve a problem. Here's how to curtail those conflicts of interest.

Turning 65 is a big milestone in retirement due to Medicare eligibility. But if clients don't get their enrollment decision right, they could face costly penalties or higher medical expenses. Here's what advisors need to keep in mind — and what they need to think about if they want to loop in third-party expertise.

As 40% of advisors plan to retire within the next 10 years, young financial advisors can help fill the gap. Here's how established advisory practices are integrating younger generations into their teams.

When it comes to protecting consumers' money, many in the financial industry are in one of two camps: those in favor of a 'fiduciary rule' or those who back a 'best interest' regulation. Now, some states are poised to wade into the fight by adopting a best interest standard for annuities sales.

The CFP Board, which oversees standards for 86,000 certified financial planners in the U.S., removed the ability for consumers to search for an advisor based on how they're paid.

Eighty-one percent of financial advisors say markets haven't hit bottom yet amid the coronavirus pandemic, according to a survey by Ned Davis Research. Two members of CNBC's Financial Advisor Council say whatever the future holds, they're telling clients to stay the course.

Somehow the quiet made it louder. By rights, marking the 75^th anniversary of VE Day in the midst of a pandemic that has confined us to our homes – forcing us to keep our distance from one another, denying us the right to gather in crowds – should have muffled this commemoration. A celebration in private would surely feel like no celebration at all. Katherine Jenkins singing to an empty Albert Hall, streets with no street parties and the pubs all shut: how could that add up to anything other than a damp squib?

And yet Friday’s marking of the end of the second world war struck a deeper chord than it might, had it been just another sunny bank holiday. Yes, the usual rituals had to be suspended. There could be no wreath-laying at local memorials; instead, Prince Charles and Camilla laid two small wreaths on their own, in a crowdless corner of Balmoral, watched by a lone piper. There could be no veterans’ parades, no reunions for those who had served, no grateful handshakes from the politicians: 102-year-old former staff sergeant Ernie Horsfall had to make do with a Zoom call from Boris Johnson. And there were limited opportunities for silliness: the Winston Churchill impersonators were all dressed up with nowhere to go, forced to perform their cigar-and-V-sign shtick online.
