Frequently Asked Questions

  • How does offering a 401(k) retirement plan benefit my business?

    How does offering a 401(k) retirement plan benefit my business?

    See answer ›

    Here’s a few key benefits:

    • Recruitment and retention: Retirement benefits help attract and retain top talent - especially in 2022’s tight labor market. More than 3 in 4 (77 percent) working Americans rank retirement savings—such as 401(k) and pension plans—as one of the most important employer-sponsored financial wellness benefits.
    • Tax advantages: Employer contributions are deductible on the employer’s federal income tax return, up to a certain amount. And if you’re starting a new 401(k) plan, you may be eligible to receive up to $16,500 in tax credits over the first three years to offset the business expense of setting up your 401(k).

    You don’t need to. However, a trusted advisor can help you find the savings program that’s best for your employees. The role of the advisor is becoming increasingly important - especially for small businesses. In fact, the number of savings plans associated with a financial advisor jumped from 68% of all plans in 2008 to 93% today. You can connect with one of our plan experts to discuss your business needs. If you’d like to find an advisor, we can help with that, too.
