Financial advisors with CAPTRUST, an independent advisory firm that provides financial and retirement advice to employees who work for institutions in the University of North Carolina System, will conduct one-on-one virtual consultations June 14-18 and 21-25. Topics covered during the 45-minute advisory sessions will include:

• Retirement and general financial planning.
• Investment education and advice.

You also will have an opportunity to learn about Retirement Blueprint, CAPTRUST’s interactive retirement readiness tool. For more information about the tool, view this short, informative video.

These one-on-one sessions are offered to you solely as a benefit, so you can be assured that CAPTRUST’s role is to help you make sound investment decisions, not sell you anything. Go to this online scheduler to make an appointment.
