Ascensus supports qualified retirement plans and Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs) through partnerships with top financial institutions, banks, credit unions, and advisors.
We administer the nation’s first state-facilitated retirement programs, leveraging our strong state relationships to offer the opportunity to save for the future to employees who don’t have access to a workplace retirement plan.
As the nation's leading provider of 529 plans, we help families and students save today to help finance the education expenses of tomorrow. We created and power Ugift, a free service that allows family and friends to give the gift of college savings.
We support a range of savings and spending accounts designed to help individuals plan for the future and prepare for healthcare needs. With healthcare reform continually taking shape, we've established business and technology partnerships that place us at the forefront of the health and benefits industry.
We partner with states across our nation to help families save for disability-related expenses without jeopardizing their eligibility for federal benefits. ABLE plans allow individuals with disabilities and their loved ones to save for the resources they need today and in the future.
Our culture is grounded in values that underscore our commitment to our clients. Whether we’re partnering with a leading financial institution, a state treasurer’s office, a large corporation, or a small business, those we serve are always at the center of everything we do.
