Are there any measurable targets (e.g., AUM growth, client acquisition numbers) associated with the expanded distribution relationships?

Based on the excerpt you provided, the press release from Voya Financial – which highlights “strong client growth, expanded distribution relationships, and strategic enhancements in talent and innovation” for the first half of 2025 – does not include any specific, quantifiable targets tied to those expanded distribution relationships. In other words, the announcement does not disclose:

  • A concrete AUM‑growth percentage or dollar amount that Voya expects to achieve as a result of the new or broadened distribution channels.
  • A defined number of new clients, plans, or accounts it aims to add through those relationships.
  • Any timeline‑bound milestones (e.g., “X % AUM growth by year‑end” or “add Y new employer groups by Q4 2025”).

The language in the release is descriptive rather than numeric, emphasizing the “strong progress” and “trust clients place in us,” but it stops short of providing measurable objectives. If you need precise targets or performance metrics, you would typically look for them in more detailed investor presentations, earnings calls, or regulatory filings (e.g., Form 10‑Q/10‑K) where Voya may outline specific growth goals for AUM, client acquisition, or distribution expansion.
