   "'Smart messages' do that," explains Michael Campbell, Vice-President, Group Retirement Services Marketing. "By providing customized information that speaks directly to members about their individual accounts, 'Smart messages' help members make more informed decisions about their retirement savings plans."
   
   'Smart messages' are based on three categories - financial, demographic and general information - and offer details about such things as key stages for investing, portfolio diversification and tax receipt mailings. 'Smart messages' help support group retirement plan sponsors in addressing their plan governance responsibilities and for compliance with Capital Accumulation Plan guidelines targeting information specifically to members.
   
   "'Smart messages' are a risk-management tool that can help members understand how their investments are performing and increase awareness about specific aspects of the member's plan that may require action," Campbell says.
