Edelman Financial Engines has launched a workplace financial wellness platform that will provide information and support during major life events and milestones. These include significant family or health changes, a new job or a promotion and decisions around saving for college and retirement, the company said in a press release.
The platform, called Momentum by Edelman Financial Engines, will be available to participants in the retirement plan programs managed by the firm.
The platform features a library of digital content, webinars and educational tools and assessments. Employees also have unlimited access to live, one-on-one counseling and planning sessions with credentialed advisers.
Edelman said its Retirement Readiness retirement advice and management service will continue to remain available as a standalone offering, while the availability of the full suite of its new service will vary.
