Hire an Expert 

As experts exclusively in 401k administration - focusing our people, processes and technology on 401(k) administration allows us to deliver superior expertise, efficiency, fiduciary support, and service compared to generalist firms spreading resources across multiple disciplines.

​

Dedicated Expertise

 

Specialist 401(k) firms employ teams solely focused on the intricate rules, regulations, and best practices surrounding retirement plans. This deep specialization allows them to stay ahead of the constant legal and compliance changes that generalists may miss.

​

Efficient Processes

 

By concentrating solely on 401(k) plans, specialist providers can streamline and optimize every process - from plan design and investment due diligence to recordkeeping and reporting. This efficiency drives down costs and improves accuracy compared to generalist firms splitting focus across multiple service lines.

​

Latest Technology

 

Specialist firms invest heavily in cutting-edge 401(k) technology like automated recordkeeping systems, paperless transactions, and integrated payroll data feeds. Generalists are often stuck using outdated, cumbersome technology across their various service offerings.

​

Fiduciary Support

 

Many specialist 401(k) providers act as a 3(16) plan administrator fiduciary, assuming significant compliance responsibilities that would otherwise fall on the employer. Generalists rarely extend this comprehensive level of fiduciary oversight.

​

Focused Service

 

With teams dedicated to just 401(k) clients, specialist firms can provide more attentive, responsive service. This includes one-on-one participant education that generalists often lack the capacity to offer.

​

Benchmarking Expertise

 

Specialization allows deeper benchmarking capabilities to ensure plan fees, investment options, and service levels remain competitive and in employees' best interests - a key fiduciary requirement. By exclusively focusing their people, processes and technology on 401(k) administration, specialist providers can deliver superior expertise, efficiency, fiduciary support and service compared to generalist firms spreading resources across multiple disciplines.
