A Word from the CEO
I recently returned from Israel. In addition to celebrating Pesah in the Holy Land, I had the pleasure of meeting with several JRB members living there. These meetings drove home the JRB's fiduciary responsibility to meet the needs of our participants wherever they live.
The article by the Chair of the JRB's Board of Trustees, Rabbi Michael B. Greenbaum, addresses this responsibility. Rabbi Greenbaum describes how the Board fulfills its fiduciary duty to you. It's a must read.
The second major article in this issue of the
Financial Pulse
, "5 Tips to Reduce Your 2018 Taxes," offers suggestions on how you can most benefit from the recently enacted Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. One big take-away -- it's important to begin calendar year 2018 tax planning now.
Please don't hesitate to contact the JRB if you have questions about either of these articles. We're available at 888-JRB-FREE (572-3733) or

L'Shalom,
