Overview

Empower is an American retirement services company that has become the second largest recordkeeper in the United States, administering workplace retirement plans for tens of millions of people. It grew through the acquisitions of Prudential's and MassMutual's retirement businesses and the Personal Capital wealth platform, and it now combines plan administration with personal wealth management aimed at converting plan participants into advised clients when they leave an employer. Headquartered in Greenwood Village, Colorado and owned by the Canadian insurer Great-West Lifeco, it is not itself listed.

Products

Empower Investments
Target date funds and managed account products offered inside the plans. Default investment options capture the large majority of participant assets, because very few people ever change the option they were enrolled into.
empower.com
Institutional Services
Plan design, fiduciary support and consulting for employers and their advisers. The employer rather than the participant is the buyer here, and their consultants effectively decide most competitive tenders in this market.
empower.com
Participant Experience
The digital tools through which plan participants view balances, model retirement income and adjust contributions. Engagement here is what determines whether a participant ever becomes a wealth client.
empower.com
Empower Personal Wealth
Advised and self-directed wealth management built on the Personal Capital acquisition. Its strategic purpose is to keep assets when a participant leaves an employer, which is the moment most recordkeepers lose them.
empower.com
Retirement Plan Recordkeeping
Administration of workplace retirement plans covering contributions, investments and compliance. Recordkeeping is a scale business with thin margins, which is why the industry has consolidated into a handful of very large administrators.
