Micruity and MetLife Expand Collaboration to Enhance Access to Retirement Income Solutions
~ Digital Retirement Platform will deliver education and planning tools alongside increased accessibility to annuity products for defined contribution plans ~
The two firms will collaborate on the development of MetLife’s Universal Digital Retirement Platform, an education, planning, and annuity purchasing tool that seamlessly and securely connects to existing employment benefit, third party administrator (TPA) and recordkeeping systems.
This latest collaboration deepens the existing relationship between the two firms and will fill a critical gap in the American retirement income landscape by empowering defined contribution plan participants to make more informed choices as they approach retirement.
MetLife’s 2024 Qualifying Longevity Annuity Contract Poll found that 91% of plan sponsors are concerned that future retirees will run out of money in their retirement. This new tool will help plan sponsors to address these concerns, by making it seamless to offer robust educational resources on a broad range of retirement income-related topics as well as expanding access to immediate income annuities, allowing plan sponsors to easily offer these solutions within their defined contribution (DC) plans.
