Next Development in Series of Technology Investments Is Designed to Create Efficiencies for Advisors and Drive Analytics-Informed Behavior
Ascensus whose technology and expertise help millions of people save for retirement, education, and healthcare—is pleased to announce the upcoming launch of a new, customizable retirement digital sales experience.
Central to the experience is an updated plan sales proposal system debuting in the fourth quarter of 2020 for advisors accessing Ascensus-branded solutions. Ascensus will expand availability of the new system to institutional partners shortly thereafter.

The proposal platform embodies Ascensus’ position as an independent provider, affording advisors the freedom to feature the service model, investments, and managed account programs that best serve their clients’ needs. It also continues to deliver on Ascensus’ commitment to bring exceptional technology to its institutional partner and advisor audiences, including:
- multiple levels of investment and service customization to satisfy advisor, plan sponsor, and broker-dealer personalization needs;
- a compelling visual system optimized for the screen, making it easier for advisors to sell virtually;
- a new interactive framework, complete with embedded communications and demos to preview employer and employee experiences; and
- the flexibility to present the plan journey end-to-end or navigate to the topics most relevant to clients.

“We’ve transformed Ascensus’ proposal system to allow advisors to select plan features that suit their clients’ unique needs,” states Jason Crane, Ascensus’ head of retirement distribution. “The platform also tracks data analytics and provides reporting to facilitate targeted messaging, yielding more efficient and productive outcomes for advisors and our partners.”
The evolution of Ascensus’ retirement plan sales experience is yet another example of the firm’s dedication to providing the retirement tools and resources necessary to help people save for what matters. Earlier this year, Ascensus launched the READYSAVETM retirement mobile app and expanded its managed accounts services in response to the growing client and employee demand for more personalization and guidance.
