Fifth Third Bank Launches Retirement Planning Site
Fifth Third Bank announced changes to its retirement planning site in response to
feedback it collected through surveys, focus groups, and other
interactions with its 401(k) clients.
Reported by PLANADVISER staff
Fifth Third said it updated the Web site Retire.53.com. The redesigned site will provide a more personalized experience offering Fifth Third Bank clients the tools and information they need to help them take control of their retirement.
The new site, which is scheduled to be available in early October, offers the following enhancements:
- A cleaner, more user-friendly design which makes navigation simpler and access to information easier to find
- A projected retirement income tool, which allows participants to see exactly how they are progressing toward their retirement savings goal
- Planning ideas to help clients close potential gaps between what they need at retirement and their current savings rate
- Additional calculators, planning tools, and robust investment information to aid site plan participants to make more informed decisions
