Existing 401(k) and Profit Sharing plan compliance has proven to be difficult for the small and mid-size employer. One of the biggest reasons to review an existing plan is that 64% of all 401(k) plans in America are out of compliance (according to a 1999 survey done by the Actuarial Society of Pension Administrators). Often the reason is because an investment provider or administrator's plan does not match an employer's needs. When some part of an existing plan isn't working, 401k MATRIX may fix it or replace the provider with one that is better suited.
Because of our independent approach, 401k MATRIX is able to work with a variety of national investment providers, as well as regional Third Party Administrators. If the client has a particular provider preference, we are often able to accommodate their desires.
When an employer is ready to begin a new retirement plan, 401k MATRIX is the best place to begin. The employer has a lot of questions about plan design:
- Is a 401(k), SEP, or Simple the right plan?
- Does the employer need to make contributions into the plan?
- Can the plan favor the owners and key employees?
- Can the owner put in more than $40,000 annually?
- What about defined benefit plans? What is a 412(i) plan?
- What if my existing plan is top heavy?
