HOSTED BY CPBI MANITOBA
With the industry-wide shift to DC workplace plans, have we missed other opportunities to help build wealth and solve financial needs in a more holistic sense? With so many different generations in the workforce, with so many different financial priorities, can workplace plans build up solutions that speak to employees at each stage of their life?
We know there is a need for greater financial help for Canadians. Expanding workplace programs to offer solutions around student debt, cashflow management, credit counselling, and saving for your children’s education will help an employer add value to their existing pension and benefits program, and differentiate themselves in a highly competitive talent market.
Join a discussion in what the future of workplace savings and wealth programs can look like, by addressing very real problems with very non-traditional workplace solutions.
Learning Objectives:
- There exists real financial planning needs outside of just retirement savings
- The same advantages that ‘group’ retirement plans bring to retirement savings can be applied to other major financial issues
- Non-Traditional group offerings help differentiate employers in a very competitive talent market (and don’t have to cost a lot to implement)
- Canadians trust and want their employers to help solve these needs
Who Should Attend:
Benefit and savings plan sponsors (business owners, HR professionals, benefits and pensions leaders), Benefits & Savings advisors and consultants
3 Key Takeaways
- Many Canadians rely on their workplace savings and benefits program as the sole source of financial support
- Workplace programs miss gaps in Canadians’ financial wellness, and have a huge opportunity in addressing non-traditional areas like student debt, RESPs, credit counselling and cashflow management
- Non-traditional solutions can help expand the value your workplace plan brings to your organization
