GRWCD CEO Terry Kennedy praised Public Employee Retirement Assistance for keeping financial service professionals in business while offices and buildings are closed, “PERA has literally kept the public employee sector of financial and retirement planning alive during COVID 19 as most employees are working from home and only taking online meetings.”

Public Employee Retirement Assistance serves major insurance and financial service companies and will expand its client base through this new ownership.

This acquisition comes just after GRWCD announced it’s reverse stock split with intent of growing to NASDAQ. The reverse split resulted in GRWC being found under the symbol GRWCD for five more days.

PERA is the only service that provides vetted appointments – not leads – to agents. Now in our virtual world, PERA offers fully electronic appointments through their live interactive meeting platform.
