Small Business Owners with Multiple Employees

Our Business Services primarily relate to the establishment and/or operation of your company's Retirement Plan. We work with the necessary third parties to start new Plans (401k, Simple IRA, etc.) or reorganize existing Plans under a more favorable cost structure. Our services include both the initial setup or transfer of the Plan as well as ongoing Plan Consulting services.

I'M READY TO DISCUSS MY RETIREMENT PLAN

How do we assist you with your Retirement Plan?

Initial Plan setup or transfer services:

  • Outline the Plan's investment objectives through the establishment of an Investment Policy Statement (IPS)
  • Work with third-party administrators to develop the appropriate Plan specific for the goals of the IPS
  • Review and select the investment options within the Plan (on an as needed basis)
  • Open all necessary Custodial accounts

Ongoing Plan Consulting services:

  • Annual review of the IPS
  • Advising owners and staff regarding Plan details through meetings as necessary
  • Determining owner contribution to Plan by working with third-party administrator
  • Consulting on investment option performance and fulfilling all necessary reporting obligations
  • Providing educational services regarding investment options and allocation (on an as needed basis)
  • Offering employee access to personal financial planning software and discounted financial planning
  • Add new employee Custodial accounts as needed
  • Continually update and enhance plan features as AUM and employee growth occurs

We want to see plan assets grow given our mission of helping clients save money for investment and ultimately retirement, and we believe our fees are structured accordingly. For new Plans pricing may be contingent on the number of participating, eligible employees and the amount of assets within the plan. We can offer additional Business Consulting services under a negotiable fee structure.
