The Missing “S” in ESG: Why Asset Managers Must Champion Participant Financial Wellbeing

Financial wellbeing isn’t a side initiative — it is the most overlooked driver of sustainable asset growth. When participants are financially resilient, they stay invested, stay engaged, and stay on track for the future you’re helping them build.

Participants make decisions driven by pressures and life events that traditional data can’t capture.

Deepen your KYC.
Strengthen your stewardship.
Protect your AUM.

Traditional participant data tells you what people do — not why they do it.

LifeCents closes this gap by uncovering the motivations, pressures, and behavioral patterns that shape contribution rates, withdrawals, and long-term savings behavior. This intelligence enables asset managers to anticipate disengagement, protect long-term assets, and demonstrate meaningful “S” outcomes with credibility and scale.

Reveal the Hidden Risks That Undermine Long-Term Outcomes

Market models measure volatility. LifeCents measures human volatility — the daily pressures that disrupt savings habits and cause premature withdrawals.

Financial stress, debt burdens, inconsistent saving, and unexpected life events can derail even the most professionally managed portfolios. LifeCents identifies these risks early and provides pathways for participants to build resilience. The result is fewer early withdrawals, stronger savings momentum, and more stable long-term asset outcomes.

Support Participants at the Moments That Matter

Participants rarely raise their hands when they need help.

LifeCents detects the inflection points where intervention is most effective: before contributions drop, before a withdrawal, before engagement collapses. This enables you to:

  • Intervene at the exact moment behavior is most likely to change
  • Guide participants before contribution drops or withdrawals occur
  • Improve engagement by aligning support to real-life pressures
  • Strengthen stewardship by addressing risks traditional data can’t see

[With LifeCents] We’re gaining access to data and insights about people’s spending, saving, and investing habits, behaviors, and motivations that would be impossible to get anywhere else.

Proven With Leading Firms Who See What Others Miss

As discussed on the Sustainable Investor podcast, the industry is asking the wrong questions about financial wellness.

LifeCents provides a wellbeing engine that improves real-world participant behavior and stabilizes long-term assets — a capability standard financial education tools cannot match.
