Learn about RAM’s Retirement Plan Solution
There has never been a better time to start a retirement plan! The federal government recognizes citizens have not saved nearly enough to produce a comfortable retirement and have recently rolled out tremendous TAX CREDITS to help employers provide access to retirement savings vehicles, like 40lk's.
With the passage of recent legislation via the Secure Act, more employers are gaining access and seeing advantages in the pooled plan space. These arrangements are providing unique opportunities for employers to reduce the amount of time they are spending on plan administration & simultaneously save SIGNIFICANTLY on the costs they are spending on their current 401(k) plan.
RAM wants to help provide these advantages to you! We have rolled out a Multiple Employer 401(k) Plan to simplify the process of offering a 401(k) plan to your employees. Standard single 401(k) plans have been around for a long time. Our goal is to provide a powerful alternative for members that want to decrease the amount of time they spend on administration, remove fiduciary liability, eliminate the costly annual 401(k) audit, and lower costs.
Please join us for a webinar on September 24th to learn more about these TAX CREDITS and the advantages of our Multiple Employer 401k Plan.
