U.S. investment advisor, Financial Engines, has launched its first retirement income solution. The new offering, Income+, which will offer steady monthly payouts from a 401(k) account, is available to participants in Financial Engines’ managed accounts program.
The service does not need employers to add an annuity or change the fund line-up in their plan and is designed to meet required minimum distribution rules. Aon Hewitt has been offering Income+ to its clients since the fourth quarter of 2010, while ACS, ING, JP Morgan Retirement Plan Services and Mercer are expected to offer it to clients later this year.
