Statement from Susan Houser, the Principal Financial Group (June 3, 2009):
"As part of an ongoing review of our business, we made the decision to eliminate approximately 140 positions in Des Moines and approximately 80 positions in other locations, primarily in the retirement business. In the normal course of running the business, we continually review all operations to ensure that resources are aligned with customer needs. Retirement plan customers and advisors are asking for different levels of service. Well-run companies like The Principal must make difficult decisions in order to adapt to changing customer needs and to position the company for continued strength and growth. We thank these employees for their dedicated service to The Principal. As the markets recover and customers review and realign service needs, we hope to be back in contact with them."
