Company’s proprietary planning platform named Best InsurTech Solution
MILWAUKEE, March 17, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Northwestern Mutual‘s efforts to create the financial industry’s most exceptional client experience are winning attention and industry accolades. Today, the FORTUNE 90 financial services company is announcing that its proprietary financial planning platform won the “Best InsurTech Solution” as part of the 2022 FinTech Breakthrough Awards.
“This award proves what we’ve believed all along since our platform launched – Northwestern Mutual’s financial planning experience is in a class of its own,” said Christian Mitchell, executive vice president and chief customer officer at Northwestern Mutual. “We are the only company that offers an award-winning planning platform that comprehensively combines permanent life insurance with investments and annuities. It’s an approach that’s been shown to deliver clients with better outcomes more often than others. Co-created with our elite financial advisors and by incorporating extensive feedback from clients, this innovative tool is built to serve clients with the simplest and the most sophisticated financial planning needs.”
Northwestern Mutual’s proprietary financial planning platform – called PX – is the only tool on the market today that combines risk and investment solutions, allowing advisors to demonstrate to clients how an integrated plan can provide them with more protection, growth and flexibility. Advisors can also model the accumulated value of risk-based products as part of a client’s projected net worth in retirement. And with PX’s retirement planning capability, advisors can run multiple scenarios to compare different paths toward clients’ retirement goals – two important features that allow clients new ways to see how a holistic plan can create better outcomes.
