  • GE RapidK, an e-401(k) plan, and

GE joined forces with GoldK, an online retirement services company to offer GE RapidK, which allows small employers and their retirement plan advisors to quote, design, install, and manage their 401(k) accounts totally online.

On the other hand, in offering GE Custom 401k, a full-service alternative for small businesses, GE teamed up with Universal Pensions. The plan design offers quarterly statements, on-site enrollments and the ability to access account information online.

Plan sponsors and plan participants can access information on both 401(k) plan designs at www.gefinancialbenefits.com.
