Overview of the Nevada NEST Program

In 2023, Nevada enacted legislation (Nevada Revised Statutes 353D) establishing the Employee Savings Trust (NEST) Program, a government-backed retirement solution that became operational in June 2025. This initiative specifically serves private industry workers who currently have no employer-provided retirement savings options, working to bridge the coverage gap that leaves many employees without adequate retirement planning resources.

The program operates through automatic payroll deductions deposited into state-administered individual retirement accounts (IRAs), while minimizing administrative burden, costs, and liability for employers. The Nevada NEST Program is governed by a six-member Board of Trustees, with administrative support provided by the Nevada State Treasurer's Financial Literacy and Security Division.
