CORE Loans & Distributions: Fast, Accurate, Automated

Participant loan and distribution requests shouldn’t be a bottleneck. Yet, for many recordkeepers, plan providers, and TPAs, these routine transactions often become sources of delays, manual errors, and participant frustration — especially during periods of high demand.

With Congruent’s CORE Loans & Distributions module, you can eliminate delays, automate complex calculations, and deliver a faster, smoother experience for participants while reducing the administrative burden on your teams.

The Challenge: Manual Processes Slow Everything Down

– Cumbersome Workflows: Paper-based or semi-manual processes slow approvals and increase turnaround times.
– Complex Calculations: Loan amortization, interest rate application, repayment schedules, and distribution taxability require precision.
– Resource Drain: Teams waste time on repetitive tasks and error correction instead of focusing on value-added service.
– Participant Frustration: Delays in processing loans or distributions lead to poor participant experience and reputational risk.

CORE automates the entire loans and distributions process — from request to fulfillment.
