Newport Introduces More Resources for Spanish Speaking Plan
Participants
ORLANDO, Fla. (Business Wire EON/PRWEB ) December 9, 2008 --
The Newport Group, a leading national provider of retirement plans,
executive benefits and investment consulting services, announced that
its award-winning participant account statements and participant website
are now available in Spanish — at just the touch of a button.
These new resources are in addition to Spanish language enrollment kits
and bilingual benefit and investment specialists available through
Newport’s Client Service Center. With these materials, Newport continues
to address the needs of Spanish-speaking retirement plan participants,
according to Newport Chief Marking Officer Tom Pittman.
“One of Newport’s strengths in the retirement and benefit plan
marketplace is effectively communicating with participants about the
benefits of their plan and making it easy for them to participate,” said
Pittman.
“Many of our plan sponsors have large populations of Spanish-speaking
employees as well as those who speak other languages. Our communication
and technology teams are constantly creating new ways to break down
language barriers for participants to help them better understand and
embrace their retirement benefits.”
Newport’s industry-leading participant website plandestination.com
includes complete account information including current balances, the
ability to perform transactions, and retirement and financial education
material. For plan sponsors, the site provides the ability to administer
the plan easily online. Any plan sponsor or participant can simply
select the “En Español” link at the top of the site’s homepage to
instantly translate the site into Spanish.
“Language should never be a barrier on the path to retirement,” Pittman
remarked. “These enhancements make it easier than ever for
Spanish-speaking participants to enroll in benefit plans, make informed
decisions, and plan the best route to reach their financial
destinations.”
