iA Financial Group makes it easier to manage and govern group retirement plans - Enhancement to the secure advisor and plan sponsor website

QUEBEC CITY, June 15, 2016 /CNW Telbec/ - iA Financial Group (Industrial Alliance Insurance and Financial Services Inc.) is pleased to announce that it has added several new online services to the secure group retirement plan advisor and plan sponsor website. Thanks to features that combine user-friendliness and efficiency, the new web environment allows clients and partners to take control over their group retirement plans and get the most out of it.

In addition to an existing dashboard which provides an overall and instant view of the plan and makes it easier to manage plan members, new statistics, updated daily, allow advisors and plan sponsors to view asset allocation, monitor the health of the plan, and access information regarding plan member usage of the website. The statistics can also be converted into various reports. Moreover, the enhanced website provides an online contribution tool that simultaneously synchronizes with the plan member list, which maximizes usage.

"For an employer, taking control over its retirement plan means not only having access to the diagnostic the statistics can provide regarding the health of the plan, but also being able to act on it, based on this diagnostic. The new web environment therefore offers employers simple and concrete ways to reach their sound governance goals", states Renée Laflamme, Executive Vice-President, Group Benefits and Retirement Solutions.

This initiative shows once again that iA Financial Group is fully committed to supporting group retirement plan sponsors and advisors by offering smart, high-performance solutions and superior services in order to nurtur long-term relationships focused on simplicity.
