Financial Benefits Network Launches Resource Portal
Financial Benefits Network (FBN) has launched a benefits resource
portal that provides employers and employees access to corporate
benefit information and personal finance educational materials.
Reported by PLANADVISER staff
FBN says the portal was designed to help human resource professionals transition their activities from “transactional” to “strategic” and to go paperless by communicating all benefits information online. All employee benefit plan information, including forms and medical provider directories, is available in one place, the company announced.
FBC hopes that this service can free up time and demands on staff, and includes a financial education module that covers financial topics such as as saving, retirement, college planning, health, nutrition, and elder care.
“Having spent over 30 years in the benefits industry I know the stress it can cause both employers and employees,” said Will Morris, founder and president of the FBN program. “The best remedy for undue stress is information, and the FBN system seeks to provide both parties with the information that will make their lives easier, in a quick and easy to access manner.”
