The Maine Retirement Investment Trust (MERIT), is a new retirement savings program, created by the Maine Retirement Savings Board. Here in Maine, 40% of our private-sector workforce does not have access to a retirement savings plan at work. MERIT was created to help bridge Maine’s retirement savings gap.

With MERIT, cannabis businesses can help their employees save for retirement in a Roth Individual Retirement Account (IRA) through convenient payroll deductions. This new program is an easy way for Mainers to save for the future.

SEE YOU THERE!!
