Federal Employees

What We Offer

Federal retirement benefits are often confusing and complex. We help show federal employees how proactive benefit decisions can positively affect their retirement and overall financial situation. Federal employees are severely underserved when it comes to their financial planning.

Feds have complicated benefits that can leave them confused and frustrated. According to the Government Business Council, fewer than 50% feel prepared for retirement. Less than 40% of adults 50 or older have seen a financial advisor to help plan for their retirement, per AARP.

We Understand Your Unique Benefits.

Federal employees have unique planning needs—balancing their exceptional government benefits with the rest of their sometimes-complex financial picture.

WG Financial Group has extensive knowledge of your federal benefits including:

CSRS & FERS Pensions

Federal Employees' Group Life Insurance (FEGLI)

Survivor Benefit Plan

Federal Employees Health Benefits (FEHB)

FERS Supplement

Federal Long-Term Care Insurance Program (FLTCIP)

Social Security

Thrift Savings Plan (TSP)

Through extensive training, our firm is well-versed in the particulars of these various federal benefit programs and helps federal families to make the most of these benefits—both while working and in retirement. Our goal is to always provide credible, top-notch financial planning services to our federal clients.
