TaskRabbit co-founder, Kevin Busque, has a new venture, Guideline Technologies. It aims to provide access to simple and affordable 401(k) plans to employees of small businesses. Most robo-platforms focus on other parts of the investment chain, and the bigger firms that do cater for the 401(k) market service existing plans, but do not facilitate the set up of new ones. The company is based in San Francisco, where it employs about 20 people. Replace all those clunky and confusing paper and online brochures about asset allocation and risk tolerance with a slick interface that’s easy to understand and a joy to use. Guideline Technologies plans to work predominantly with Vanguard, and earlier this month, as reported in this briefing, Wells Fargo announced plans to partner Financial Engines.
