Services
Our services can help financial advisors and plan sponsors adhere to a prudent investment process, while also meeting the high standards of fiduciary responsibility.
We serve as a plan fiduciary in offering:
- Core Investment Advisory Service ― Our ERISA § 3(21) advisory process includes (1) preparing an Investment Policy Statement designed specifically for the plan, (2) providing a list of investment options that are compatible with the plan’s investment objectives, and (3) delivering ongoing monitoring and reporting as to the quality and performance of the selected investment options. This service is offered in two versions: Essential and Concierge.
- Discretionary Investment Management Service ― We can assume ERISA § 3(38) fiduciary responsibility for selecting, monitoring, and managing retirement plan assets in defined contribution, defined benefit, and cash balance plans. Discretionary Investment Management Service can include Managed Asset Portfolios (MAP) and Risk and Time Factored Portfolios (RTFP).
In a non-fiduciary capacity, we offer AdvisorPro, in which we work as a back-office solution to support financial intermediaries and provide quarterly customized reports to plan sponsors. This allows intermediaries to better manage resources they would normally dedicate to technology and operations.
