Monday, March 14, 2022

WINDSOR, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Voya Financial, Inc. (NYSE: VOYA), announced today that it has been retained as the recordkeeper and service provider for the City of Milwaukee Deferred Compensation Plan.

Voya’s relationship with the City of Milwaukee began five years ago and was extended pursuant to a five-year agreement. The City of Milwaukee Deferred Compensation Plan is a voluntary 457(b) defined contribution plan that allows public employees of the city to set aside funds from each paycheck toward their retirement. Today, the plan represents approximately $1 billion in assets under administration and supports 9,300 participating members.

“We are excited to extend our relationship with Voya as we continue to focus on and build upon the integration of our financial wellness program, the team’s ongoing local education and strong organizational relationships,” said Beth Conradson Cleary, executive director, City of Milwaukee 457(b) Deferred Compensation Plan.

As the City of Milwaukee once again places its confidence in Voya as a trusted service provider for the city’s retirement savings plan, employees will continue to have access to administrative and recordkeeping services as well as a variety of educational and planning tools such as Voya’s enhanced participant website — including the myOrangeMoney® retirement calculator. Additionally, city employees will have access to in-plan advice and professional account management through Voya Retirement Advisors.*
