Retirement Plan Consulting
Drive Business Success With Custom Retirement Plan Solutions
A well-structured, competitive retirement plan can fuel company growth, improve employee retention and position your organization as the employer of choice among prospective job candidates. A lot of work goes into designing and implementing a great retirement plan, but that doesn’t mean it has to be difficult. With the right team in place, you can build the retirement plan your company and your employees deserve while giving you the peace of mind of knowing that your “t’s” are crossed and your “i’s” are dotted.
Plan Design Services
Your business is unlike any other. Your retirement plan should meet your specific needs, as well as those of your employees. At a minimum, your plan design should consider the:
- Profitability of your business
- Cash flow of your business and its consistency
- Ages of the owners and employees
An ideal plan document is flexible – so you can create a retirement plan that efficiently and effectively meets the retirement objectives of you and your employees. Pairing your 401(k) plan with a cash balance plan can also help you significantly increase your annual retirement contributions and potential tax deduction.
Plan Administration
Participant recordkeeping and reporting. Enrollment. Distribution processing. Governmental compliance and reporting. How do you keep it all straight?
Make sure your plan is administered properly so that you’re in compliance. And if you get a governmental inquiry, we can represent you in front of the IRS and Department of Labor to minimize your involvement and risk of significant fines and penalties.
Your plan administrator should be flexible enough to accommodate many different recordkeeping platforms. We work with many of the most-recognized financial service providers in the country, which allows your financial advisor total flexibility in selecting and maintaining a strong fund line up while also providing strong tools to help educate your employees about their progress toward retirement readiness.
