LPL Financial Unveils New Retirement Planning Participant Website at focus14 Conference
SAN DIEGO, CA (PRWEB) August 13, 2014 -- LPL Financial LLC, the nation's largest independent broker-dealer*, a leading RIA custodian, and a wholly owned subsidiary of LPL Financial Holdings Inc., today announced at its focus14 conference the launch of its new Worksite Financial Solutions website, which has been designed to further help employees gain confidence in their financial future.
The website (http://www.worksitefinancialsolutions.com) was developed primarily for plan participants, but also may prove to be a powerful marketing tool for LPL Financial’s advisors. “Because anyone can access and view the site, advisors have the ability to showcase Worksite Financial Solutions at a whole new level,” said Adam Sokolic, senior vice president of LPL Retirement Partners. “The website’s contemporary and intuitive interface is designed to help clients understand the simplicity of the participant solutions and how they can be leveraged to help improve financial wellness.”
LPL Financial’s main objective in launching the website is to demystify retirement by offering plan participants education about their options through different life stages. “Providing online financial tools to participants such as calculators, videos, articles and tutorials is intended to help them make better financial decisions throughout their careers and become more confident about their futures,” Sokolic explained.
“Worksite Financial Solutions was built to help employees organize their financial lives and become more confident about their financial decisions,” said Dave Reich, executive vice president and head of LPL Retirement Partners. “In addition, we have an online platform that can serve as an additional resource for advisors and help them stand out to their clients because of the difference they can make.”
LPL Retirement Partners introduced Worksite Financial Solutions in 2013 as a beginning-to-end retirement solution that enables retirement plan sponsors and advisors to address the needs of plan participants throughout their financial lives, from hire to separation and beyond. To date, the program has enrolled 429 qualified retirement plans representing more than 119,000 participants.
