Plans that fit your company – not every company
Retirement plans and executive benefits plans are not “one size fits all.” We take the time to understand the unique characteristics of your business to ensure that your plans are properly structured to best meet your needs.
We help you find the right fit
With numerous providers in the marketplace, evaluating and selecting the right one can be daunting. We do the legwork, comparing and contrasting the options to help each client select the best fit based on variables that are most important to them.
We help minimize risk – and we share it
We educate plan sponsors about their fiduciary responsibilities and offer them solutions to minimize their fiduciary liability and exposure. We serve as co-fiduciaries on our clients’ qualified retirement plans, so we have a vested interest in ensuring your plan’s success.
Plan choice is just step one
We help our clients with all aspects of managing their plans including employee education and communication, vendor oversight and management, plan benchmarking, plan design, plan financing, compliance, vendor integration, mergers and acquisitions, and plan analysis.
We’re always transparent – you should understand your costs
We believe that it is important for our clients to know how much they are paying for the services they receive. As a result, we are committed to fee transparency and full fee disclosure.
What are the benefits of a fiduciary review?
The team at Kaufman Rossin can help keep your retirement plan operating properly through a comprehensive fiduciary review focusing on these core areas:
Benchmarking investment performance
- Costs and fees
- Policy documentation
- Investment options
Staying current on compliance
- Statutory requirements
- Failed test correction

Identifying potential errors

Recommending plan improvements

How do you measure retirement plan success?
Companies typically use participation rate as a measurement of how successful their 401(k) plan is, but there is much more you should be factoring in to evaluate the effectiveness of your plan.
Annually assessing these key metrics will also help you identify strategies to help improve plan performance and better prepare employees for retirement.
- Meaningful employee savings rates
- Analysis of anticipated income replacement ratios
- Appropriate asset allocation
- Lower employee turnover
- Higher attendance at financial wellness meetings and seminars
- High plan participation rates
