Employer Sponsored Retirement Plans

The Future of Your Company's Retirement Plan
As an employer, you share the responsibility for guiding your employees toward making decisions that will afford them greater financial freedom in retirement. But here’s the quandary: Just as your workers look to you for financial guidance and advice, you must seek out an expert to help you navigate plan regulation and administration.
Your need for a professional retirement plan and investment advice—from a financial professional you can trust—has never been greater. That’s why your plan should work with an independent retirement plan professional affiliated with LPL Financial.
Do the following issues look familiar to your retirement plan committee?
- New regulations that add to the complexity of administration
- Fiduciary pressures to provide prudent investment options
- Timely (and potentially complex) fee disclosures to your participants
- Outside financial professionals whose allegiances are split between plan providers and investment managers
- Watershed regulations that require greater transparency about disclosing
relationships between plan sponsors and their financial professionals - Employees who feel they cannot afford to save, but are being courted by your competitors through their benefits programs
- Concerns over your employees’ retirement readiness
