Benchmark What Matters.
Are you paying too much for your retirement plan? Do you even know how much you’re paying? Does your plan warrant a higher quality of service from your provider? Can the investments in your plan be improved? If these types of questions are weighing on your mind, we have the answer you’ve been waiting for: benchmarking.
Did You Know?
If you are a Fiduciary to your retirement plan, you are required to ensure that the retirement plan conforms with regulations. If you fail to do so, even by accident, you may be faced with steep penalties, adverse tax consequences, or even worse, jail time. However, it can all be avoided with proper preparation and support from skilled providers.
A comprehensive analysis of your plan’s components.
Our analysis starts with a look at your plan’s goals. We then use those goals to develop a roadmap that illuminates the insights we need to improve the plan and identify any areas that may need a little extra attention. Our analysis evaluates the following plan components:
- Recordkeeping
- Technology Services
- Employee Communications
- Compliance
- Investment Management
- Total Plan Costs
