Important information about third-party vendors
TRSL does not authorize or endorse any outside vendors to represent TRSL or provide TRSL retirement information to your employees.
The only exceptions are the three Optional Retirement Plan (ORP) vendors: 1) TIAA, 2) VOYA, and 3) VALIC. TRSL contracts with these vendors to provide investment services, communication, and record keeping to employees who participate in the ORP.
Disclaimer request
Employers have the right to invite outside vendors to their campuses to provide retirement information to employees. If your school or agency allows an outside vendor to visit, please provide a disclaimer to your employees acknowledging that the vendor does not represent TRSL.
The goal of the disclaimer is to prevent any confusion among employees. We ask, at minimum, that the disclaimer include the following language:
- This vendor is not affiliated or associated with Teachers' Retirement System of Louisiana (TRSL) in any manner.
- TRSL does not endorse this vendor or its services and products.
- This vendor does not receive, obtain, or secure any retirement information directly from TRSL.
- Individuals who rely on any information provided by this vendor with regard to TRSL benefits, i.e. calculations, estimates, projections, etc., do so at their own risk.
