Micruity helps Americans retire securely

Micruity is on a mission to make secure retirement income accessible to all Americans. Too many people get to retirement age and are forced to figure out how to make a lump sum of money last over an unpredictable lifetime.

Micruity provides the data network that enables the pensionization of defined contribution plans. Plan recordkeepers, life insurers, asset managers, and other vendors can easily build and distribute lifetime income products using Micruity’s infrastructure and API-based application development suite. Micruity’s solution enables a more efficient, cost effective and secure ecosystem where all stakeholders in the retirement market can flourish. The end result: individuals have access to retirement income products through their 401(k) plan, getting them a step closer to their financial wellness goals.
