Ameritas Launches RetireExpress For Retirement Portfolios

Ameritas announces the launch of a new glide-path strategy for employer-sponsored retirement plans called RetireExpress^SM. RetireExpress^SM will offer a personalized, yet simplified, investment approach based on age, location, account balance and other individual factors.

The integration of this glide-path strategy will allow participants the potential to achieve retirement goals and reduce financial insecurity by allocating investments to be more conservative with age.

"RetireExpress^SM helps reduce uncertainty by offering participants stability in reaching retirement readiness," said Jim Kais, senior vice president – retirement plans. "This is just another way Ameritas is putting the plan participants and their decisions first."

In addition to RetireExpress^SM, the Ameritas retirement plans division recently launched a new plan sponsor website; an enhanced back-end customer support system; and optimized fee management and billing support. Later this year, plan sponsors will have the option to outsource administrative burdens through SimpleAdmin^SM from Ameritas.

"Ameritas is listening to our plan participants and their retirement needs," Kais said. "New technology like RetireExpress^SM aims to create a retirement savings program that complements your business."
