Principal Financial administers employer retirement plans and manages the capital accumulated in them.
The company administers retirement plans for small and mid-sized employers: collecting contributions, keeping employee accounts, reporting to regulators. The client here is the employer, and changing provider means migrating thousands of people's accounts, so relationships run for years.
The money accumulated in those plans stays under the same company's management and carries a fee — the second and more profitable half. A third part is life insurance and annuities, where liabilities are long and sensitive to rates. A substantial share of the business is in Latin America and Asia. Risks: falling markets and employment. The company pays a high dividend.
