GROUP RETIREMENT PLANS

UNDERSTAND, PROTECT, EDUCATE, SAVE.

After 30 years in business with 150 years of combined experience, we’ve seen, heard and learned a great deal. Most notably are the burdens and responsibilities that retirement plan sponsors carry. It can be a perpetual load. Working with both companies and non-profit organizations, our licensed and credentialed advisors bring a defined process and ongoing commitment to reduce the load, while helping to maximize the value and benefit of the total program.

Individualized Participant Education

Your employees get to know us as people. We develop a relationship with them. Websites and 800 numbers may be fine for general questions, but our team stands ready to help any plan participant with their personal questions about their retirement. We answer their questions about fund selection and help them see what their retirement may look like.

Compliance Services 

Compliance issues are best combated by first having the right processes in place to avoid problems in the first place. That said, issues do arise and hiring an ERISA attorney is not always the best or only option. We’ve guided many clients through compliance issues. And if your plan requires a Large Plan audit, you are subject to a DOL or IRS audit, or you undergoing a Plan merger, we’ve been through all of them. We’re here to guide you and assist you with the various document requests throughout the process.
