The new relationship between the two firms means plan sponsors utilizing Union Bank’s retirement-plan services will now be able to offer their participants access to the lifecycle funds.   These portfolios are mutual funds designed to offer investors an investment strategy tailored to the time when investors expect to begin withdrawing assets, according to a news release.
