    More than 7 percent of 401(k) assets at year-end 2007 were invested in lifecycle funds and one-quarter of 401(k) participants held lifecycle funds, according to analysis by the nonpartisan Employee Benefit Research Institute (EBRI) and the Investment Company Institute (ICI). The findings are part of the annual update of the EBRI/ICI 401(k) database, the largest of its kind, and represent the two groups' first application of the database to examine investors' use of lifecycle funds.
