The Geneva
Retirement Plan
Solution
No one knows your business like you do. Your ability to focus
on your enterprise has made you the success you are today.
Increased global competition, rapid technology changes, and cumbersome government regulations have made operating your company a challenge. Trouble is, there's a lot to running a successful business that has little to do with the core business you're managing, but is still critically important to your overall long-term success. Your
company retirement planis a perfect example. You know you need excellent benefits in order to attract, reward and retain exceptional employees. You know that you need to keep these benefits costs reasonable and under control. You also know that you don't want the complexities of monitoring this program taking up your valuable work time.
That's why we createdTheGenevaRetirement PlanSolution. It's a comprehensive,
evolutionary six-step process that’s built around three principles—simplicity, focus, and balance.
Simplicity
We do the work for you.
One of our specially-trained financial professionals will take you through our evolutionary six-step process to develop a retirement plan that meets your company's needs. We will…
•evaluate your current retirement plan, including places where you may be paying hidden and unnecessary fees.
•help find ways to maximize tax benefits.
•help protect you and your company's fiduciaries from unnecessary litigation.
•write an RFP and analyze proposals to make sure you obtain the best solution.
•provide ongoing monitoring of your plan investments on a quarterly or semi-annual basis.

Focus
Results, not procedures.
Think of us as one of your employees—only one who just doesn't happen to have an office on-site. Our expertise is in getting you the results you want, without getting you bogged down in complex rules and regulations. We sit on your side of the negotiating table to find the best retirement plan solution for your company. Once your plan is implemented, we monitor it regularly to make sure it continues to meet your company's goals and objectives over time.
That leaves you free to focus on what you do best…
Balance
Minimizing costs, creating exceptional value.
By now you're probably wondering…just how much is this going to cost? Not to worry. In many cases, we'll be able to uncover places where you're paying unnecessary expenses—hidden mutual fund fees are one example—and use that money to unlock your retirement plan’s “buried treasure.” Your retirement plan may have hidden costs and expenses. The industry calls these 12 b-1 and sub TA fees. We call them “buried treasure,” or the gold bullion of your retirement plan. These fees can be used to reduce your plan’s future expenses and cover some, if not all, of our consulting fees!
We can be compensated in a number of ways. It may be as simple as placing us as broker of record on your retirement plan. If you prefer, we can act as an investment advisor and be paid a percentage of your plan’s assets on an ongoing basis. Lastly, we can receive a consulting fee based on the specific services that you desire. It’s your choice.
