Standard Insurance Creates Advice Service for Retirement Plans

Standard Insurance Co., a Portland, Ore.-based subsidiary of StanCorp Financial Group Inc., has created a new retirement savings tool, Portfolio Progression, for retirement plan participants.

Portfolio Progression has been designed to create a personal investment strategy based on a participant’s individual risk tolerance and target retirement age. The service automatically transitions the participant’s retirement portfolio to increasingly conservative allocations between the date of enrollment in the service and the target retirement age. A questionnaire completed by each participant helps determine which asset allocations to choose as a starting portfolio.
