vWise Launches Unique Interactive Video Solution to Increase 401k Participant Engagement

Major Plan Provider Testing Solution

April 7, 2008 – Aliso Viejo CA – vWise Inc. today announced the launch of SmartPlan 401, a unique new interactive video-based engagement system that prompts greater participation in company-sponsored investment plans, such as 401(k)s, and increased investment by each plan participant.

Most employees don’t know how—or why—to invest in a 401(k). And they don’t read the materials designed to explain it. Now companies can provide the critical 401(k) investment information employees need, in a format they will actually use, with SmartPlan Enterprise.

"As a comprehensive internet-based system, SmartPlan Enterprise heralds an exciting new era in 401(k) and 403(b) participant engagement. It has been in development for over a year, and we are excited to have our first version in testing at a major plan provider," commented vWise president Tony Mingo.

By combining a video-based presentation of detailed financial information with an interactive application that prompts users to make informed investment decisions, SmartPlan can help your company:

  • Increase plan enrollment
  • Raise participant contribution levels
  • Migrate participants out of “default” funds
