What do We Say
EMPLOYERS play an important role in the future economic empowerment of employees. In fact, EMPLOYERS are key in the system to make a real difference in the future economic outlook of retirees.
Group financing and retirement planning that is individualised and managed by a professional financial planner attracts and retains talent. It also offers significant cost benefits and increased return on investment over time. Due to limited knowledge, the majority of employees with access to EMPLOYEE RETIREMENT PLANNING choose default options, which in general offers conservative growth. Decision-making also resides with a Board of Trustees that does not specialise in financial and retirement planning. Monitoring of performances by funds is not conducted comprehensively and on a regular basis, leaving room for neglect and poor decision-making.
Group financing is key but individualisation and personalised service makes the real difference – for EMPLOYEES and EMPLOYERS alike.
Ultima offers EMPLOYERS the opportunity to develop flexible and dynamic EMPLOYEE RETIREMENT BENEFITS that come with training and on-going professional financial advice. We are committed to help you create financial security and wealth for your employees over time, providing them with peace of mind and the capability to live a meaningful life.
