Voya Financial expands its Advisor Managed Accounts program with additional capabilities in alternatives and private assets. Published at July 7th 2026, 9:00 AM EDT via Business Wire i This article is third-party content and does not represent the views of this site. We make no guarantees regarding its accuracy or completeness. Voya Financial, Inc. (NYSE: VOYA) today announced the expansion of private asset capabilities within its existing Advisor Managed Accounts (AMA) program. These enhanced capabilities allow registered investment advisors (RIAs) to allocate to private market investments - including private equity, private credit and private real estate - within personalized, professionally managed portfolios for plan participants. Launched in 2021, Voya's AMA program enables RIAs to deliver education alongside personalized, professionally managed portfolios to retirement plan participants through a consistent user experience. "This solution gives plan sponsors a way to offer employees access to private markets through a program combining education, professional management, ongoing account oversight and our focus on designing solutions that support long-term outcomes," said Amy Vaillancourt, president, Retirement. "Professionally managed solutions like advisor managed accounts can help participants navigate more complex investment options with greater confidence, while providing structured access to a broader set of investments." Today's news builds on the launch of Voya's Primary Plus, an expanded lineup of non-core investment solutions which allows third-party RIA firms that offer a managed account program through Voya, the ability to introduce investment options outside of a plan's core investment lineup. These capabilities are designed to work together to help participants diversify their portfolios within a professionally managed framework, particularly as they move closer to retirement. Due to their specialized structures and investment horizons, private markets have historically been limited to a narrower group of investors, even as more individuals build savings through workplace plans and look to diversify their portfolios. Reflecting its strong commitment to making high-quality investment solutions more accessible, Voya has a decade-long experience of successfully integrating private assets into custom asset allocation portfolios, and this move builds on and extends those capabilities across the AMA platform. Initially, RIAs will have access to Voya Investment Management's recently announced V-ALT collective investment trusts (CITs) and Blue Owl's Alternative Credit CIT (OWLCX) and Real Estate Net Lease CIT (ORENT). Voya will continue to evaluate and add managers and strategies through its established governance process with a focus on disciplined portfolio construction and long-term participant outcomes.

A note about risk: Private equity: Private equity investments are subject to various risks. These risks are generally related to: (i) the ability of the manager to select and manage successful investment opportunities; (ii) the quality of the management of each company in which a private equity fund invests; (iii) the ability of a private equity fund to liquidate its investments; and (iv) general economic conditions. Private equity funds that focus on buyouts have generally been dependent on the availability of debt or equity financing to fund the acquisitions of their investments. Depending on market conditions, however, the availability of such financing may be reduced dramatically, limiting the ability of such private equity funds to obtain the required financing or reducing their expected rate of return. Securities or private equity funds, as well as the portfolio companies these funds invest in, tend to be more illiquid, and highly speculative. Private credit: Foreign investing does pose special risks, including currency fluctuation, economic, and political risks not found in investments that are solely domestic. As interest rates rise, bond prices may fall, reducing the value of the share price. Debt securities with longer durations tend to be more sensitive to interest rate changes. High yield securities, or "junk bonds," are rated lower than investment grade bonds because there is a greater possibility that the issuer may be unable to make interest and principal payments on those securities. Other risks of private credit include, but are not limited to: credit risks, other investment companies risks, price volatility risks, inability to sell securities risks, and securities lending risks.
