Let Raymond James show you how to save time, enhance fiduciary protection and possibly lower total cost, all without going through a conversion.

In order to be competitive in today’s job market, offering a retirement plan is a "need to have." Yet, just offering any plan won’t cut it – employees are demanding more from their employers to improve overall financial health.

And while a 401(k) plan offers employees the potential for financial security, up until now, it also led to financial constraints, administrative headaches, and fiduciary liabilities for many small businesses. Fiduciary responsibilities that come with personal liability 

Simply put, offering a 401(k) as a smaller organization has not been easy.

There is a better way – first step is to build a team that works together to pull your organization in the right direction. In their role as advisor, Raymond James can enhance the current offering of your existing provider or help you find one that is a better fit for your employees.

Our mission is simple: help employees achieve financial independence & help employers meet their fiduciary obligations.

As an HR professional, you know all about doing more with less. SHRM 401(k) Solutions by Raymond James was built with that in mind. Let us be an extension of your team to upgrade the benefits offered to your employees.

Without the proper support, retirement plans can be complicated - payroll integration, testing, investment selection, fee negotiation, vendor management, plan design, not to mention one of the most important factors - employee education and communication. But you don't have to do this alone! We are here to help you get started.

If you already offer a plan, do you know what or how you pay for your retirement plan service? You’re not alone if you don’t. In fact, nearly 50% of small businesses either had not reviewed plan fees in the last 12 months or were unsure if their organization had taken the time to benchmark plan costs. **

With SHRM 401(k) Solutions by Raymond James, your plan may have an opportunity to achieve significant savings. And for larger plans, you may have the opportunity to expand the services offered to your company and employees without increasing costs.
