More Honors for Your Program
Pension & Investments Magazine recently announced
their Eddy Award winners, which recognize premier investment education programs
for defined contribution plans. Ohio Deferred Compensation was awarded top prize
in the public sector special projects group for its SMarT plan education and
marketing campaign. This yearlong effort encouraged participants to enroll in an
automatic deferral increase plan to help them achieve substantially greater
savings over their career. Over 4,000 participants have enrolled in the SMarT
plan to date.
In addition to the honors received by the SMarT education campaign, Auditor of
State Mary Taylor and the Government Finance Officers Association recognized the
Program for excellence in the annual audit and financial report. These awards
highlight the Program’s commitment to fiscal responsibility, efficiency, and
high standards.
