The Principal Announces New Website for TPAs
December 19, 2012 (PLANSPONSOR.com) – The Principal Financial Group created a new website designed to make it easier for third party administrators (TPAs) to manage client retirement plans online.
Reported by Rebecca Moore
The website features more of the information and transactional capabilities TPAs need to administer plans more efficiently. TPAs will be able to more easily handle plan and participant transactions, plan compliance testing, government filing information and other key day-to-day tasks.
It is available only to TPAs who work with The Principal.
The website was launched following the first Principal TPA Edge Sales Academy, allowing TPAs from across the country to network and attend training sessions to boost sales expertise. The academy is part of the Principal TPA Edge program of services and tools http://www.principal.com/about/news/2012/ris-tpa-value-add062012.htm designed to help TPAs develop and manage their businesses.You Might Also Like:
