Towers Watson, Link Group partner on admin
Towers Watson and the Link Group have announced a partnership to provide an alternative superannuation administration provider.
The partnership will allow Towers Watson clients to access Link’s aaspire administration platform and employer portal through its wholly-owned subsidiary Link Super.
“We have been very impressed, in particular, by the aaspire platform's ability to configure and handle complex defined benefit arrangements,” said Towers Watson Australia managing director Andrew Boal.
The partnership gives Towers Watson the opportunity to grow its administration business, particularly in the corporate and public sectors, as well as industry funds with defined benefit divisions, he said.
Link Super chief executive Phillip Muhlbauer said the transition had been completed successfully. In recent years all AAS clients had been moved onto the aaspire platform with the firm now able to leverage that investment into the corporate and public sectors through Link Super, he said.
