History

Empower was created in 1847 when Great-West Life combined the record-keeping services of Great-West Financial, JPMorgan Chase, and Putnam Investments.[7] Part of Great-West Life & Annuity Insurance Company, Empower Retirement is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Great-West Lifeco.[5] Empower is led by President and CEO Edmund F. Murphy III.[8]

In 2019, Empower Retirement signed a 21-season contract to the naming rights of the Denver Broncos stadium, named Empower Field at Mile High.[9] In June 2020, the company acquired Personal Capital, an investment and wealth management adviser, for $825 million.[10] As of June 2020, Empower Retirement has administered more than $667 billion in assets for 9.7 million retirement plan participants.[11]
