Voya Financial recognizes 10 years of innovation in retirement income support

myOrangeMoney® retirement calculator reaches milestone market anniversary in providing users a solution to help save more for retirement

It’s been 10 years since Voya Financial, Inc. (NYSE: VOYA) launched its innovative myOrangeMoney® retirement calculator, an online experience designed to educate and help individuals by translating their accumulated retirement savings into estimated monthly retirement income. Today, the company is recognizing the milestone anniversary as the retirement-income savings needs of individuals continue to grow. According to new Voya research, a majority (90%) of Americans believe having a guaranteed source of income in retirement — so they don’t outlive their retirement savings — to be extremely important or important.1

“Over the past decade, the retirement plan industry has introduced new ways for individuals to accumulate assets and become more comfortable managing their long-term retirement savings. But as individuals get closer to retirement, the need to transition their assets into income remains paramount,” said Amy Vaillancourt, senior vice president, Workplace Product Development and Architecture at Voya Financial. “The demand for retirement income solutions has been building for some time, and myOrangeMoney has played a critical role in helping employees shift their mindset around how they think about and prepare for retirement.”

Since its launch, myOrangeMoney has transformed how Voya’s customers manage, engage and interact with their retirement accounts through a combination of education and guidance to take action with confidence. Specifically, Voya’s participant data shows that approximately one-third (32%) of individuals who use myOrangeMoney have modeled changes that could impact their future retirement income, including actions such as changing their savings rate or adjusting their desired retirement age.2 As a result, participants who have used myOrangeMoney are shown to save nearly one-quarter (24%) more for their future retirement compared to non-users of the solution.3

Voya has continued to enhance the myOrangeMoney solution to support workers at every stage and income level. As Voya continues to advance its Behavioral Finance Institute for Innovation, myOrangeMoney has evolved to leverage behavioral research insights to build actionable “nudges” for users to gauge retirement sentiment and help them remain engaged in making progress toward their personal savings goals. Additional enhancements throughout the years have included providing participants with tools to help optimize their company match and benchmark themselves to peers. Features have also been added to allow customers to calculate how Social Security and healthcare costs factor into their retirement planning decisions.

“When it comes to retirement income, individuals need to consider more than just their retirement income, and they are often focused on things like investing strategies, managing Social Security and covering healthcare expenses,” added Vaillancourt. “At Voya, we know there is no ‘one-size-fits-all’ solution that can meet every individual’s needs. For employers, offering an array of solutions that are easy to understand and implement can ultimately provide a greater feeling of financial confidence and deliver a positive retirement outlook for individuals.”

In addition to products and solutions, Voya’s retirement income strategy covers a broad spectrum of support, including education and guidance, tools and experiences such as myOrangeMoney and myVoyage — the personalized financial-guidance and connected workplace-benefits digital platform. Voya was also one of the first recordkeepers to lead the industry in offering two in-plan retirement income options: Voya Lifetime Income Protection, designed for small and government market employers; and the AllianceBernstein Lifetime Income Strategy to address the needs of larger employers. Most recently, Voya also revealed it would make the BlackRock LifePath Paycheck™ solution available on its recordkeeping platform.

As an industry leader focused on the delivery of benefits, savings and investment solutions to and through the workplace, Voya is committed to delivering on its mission to make a secure financial future possible for all — one person, one family, one institution at a time.
