From the supplier: A survey conducted by the Alexander Consulting Group suggests that retirement planning and investment education programs that are offered by employers are having little effect on employees’ planning strategies. The survey showed that 37% of respondents offer retirement planning programs, and 51% offer investment education. However, the basic element of how much to save seems to be missing from most of the programs, according Andrea T. Sellars of Alexander Consulting Group.

From the supplier: Insurance companies have started to acquire asset management companies as a way to increase profits and to provide value-added services to customers. Switzerland-based Zurich Insurance Group has acquired USA-based Scudder, Stevens and Clark Inc. for over $2 billion. These acquisitions are better for reinsurance or broad-based insurance companies rather than narrowly-focused insurance companies. Property/casualty insurance company, CNA, sold its Continental Asset Management operation in 1995.
