You've come to the right place
You’re going to like it here.
The beginning of something great
We’re excited that your plan is coming to Empower and committed to making the transition as smooth as possible. Our goal is to simplify plan management while making it easier for your participants to achieve financial wellness and pursue the future they imagine. As this migration unfolds, you’ll notice there’s a lot to be excited about, too.
What does this acquisition mean to me?
- For now, you, your plan participants, and your financial professional will continue using the same website credentials and day-to-day processes you have in place today. For defined benefit and nonqualified clients, you can expect enhancements on websites and tools, but will not experience a plan migration.
- Over time you’ll be able to take advantage of Empower’s enhanced technology as your plan is migrated — and upgraded — to our recordkeeping system.
- When it’s time for your plan to migrate, you, your plan participants and financial professional partners will receive a thoughtful series of communications designed to keep you informed through the process.
Participant communications
When logging in to their websites or calling a customer service representative, participants will see and hear messages about the acquisition. Participants will also have access to a site with more information about Empower and what they can look forward to.
Coming soon, we’ll share a schedule for technology updates via a migration program
