Qualified Plans
The 401(k) Plan Specialist team brings together experienced investment professionals to deliver superior client solutions. With over $500 million in qualified retirement plan assets, we are large enough to deliver institutional quality solutions, while being small enough to respond to change and our clients' needs.
Our relationship with each 401(k) client begins with an evaluation of their existing 401(k) plan; in regards to cost, fiduciary concerns, plan administration, investments, plan sponsor and participant services. We then provide a formal presentation including our findings and recommendations. In the event a transition is necessary, we will facilitate the process and provide coordination between the various vendors. Following plan implementation, we will provide proactive communication and regular review meetings as part of our ongoing service.
