“ING U.S.’s proven track record supporting large plans – especially for employers like us that provide professional, technology and management services focused on the federal government – was an important part of our decision,” said Candy Curtin, vice president of Human Resources for Serco Inc. “We were also impressed with their relationship management model and the knowledge and administrative experience of the team, along with the full suite of investment, technology and education solutions to help our employees take greater control of their retirement planning and saving.”
