Great-West Life has introduced a customizable new member home page for GRS Access, the company’s secure, transactional website.
The enhancements allow plan members to personalize the information they see on the GRS Access home page. Members decide what information they want to display. They can get a quick picture of their investment portfolio balance, both by plan and by asset class. Additionally, they can review the types of investment options they’ve chosen and compare their investment performance over time, illustrated through charts and graphs. They can also review their investments, with access to fund reports.
Other useful educational tools such as videos, calculators and articles are available to help increase plan members’ financial literacy.
“The 2010 Benefits Canada CAP Member Survey recommends that group retirement plan sponsors keep services and tools simple and easy to access, and also find ways to address the needs of specific groups such as younger employees,” says Jeff Aarssen, Great-West Life’s vice-president, group retirement services, sales and marketing. “This interactive and user-friendly tool demonstrates Great-West Life’s commitment to helping sponsors meet these needs.”
