Great-West Investments functions as the core investment engine for Empower. Historically part of Great-West Lifeco, the company focused on retirement plans, life insurance, and annuity products. In a major strategic move that began in 2020, its parent company consolidated its retirement businesses, including Great-West, Putnam Investments, and the retirement business acquired from MassMutual, under the single unified brand "Empower." The investment advisory services are primarily provided by its affiliate, Great-West Capital Management, LLC, which serves as the investment adviser to Great-West Funds, Inc. and other investment portfolios. The company's mission is to provide financial freedom for all through professional investment management and technology-driven retirement solutions.
