Retirement Plan Sponsors

Wealth management for plan sponsors

We help employers design, manage, and steward retirement plans that support participants and meet fiduciary standards.

We guide plan sponsors through regulatory requirements, investment oversight, and ongoing plan management — helping them protect participants and uphold fiduciary obligations.

CHALLENGES

Sponsoring a retirement plan creates opportunity — and fiduciary risk.

Plan sponsors face evolving regulations, investment decisions, administrative oversight, and participant needs. We help bring structure to the responsibilities that define a high performing plan.

Challenges we recognize:

  • Increasing fiduciary oversight requirements
  • Limited internal resources for ongoing plan governance
  • Complex investment lineups and monitoring needs
  • Rising participant expectations and engagement challenges
  • Coordination gaps among recordkeepers, TPAs, and payroll teams
  • Concerns about plan costs, benchmarking, or compliance
