1. The Platinum 401k, Inc. America’s Leader in 401k Plan Outsourcing! Multiple Employer Plan Solutions For Your Corporate Retirement Plan

2. Retirement Plan Outsourcing Allows You To Focus On Your Business. Increasing operational and compliance concerns are causing employers to consider alternatives to traditional “single employer retirement plan” programs. In the past, employers needed to assume full responsibility for investment fund selection and monitoring, changing regulatory requirements, employee hardship requests, beneficiary payments, Form 5500 filings, plan documents, annual notice requirements, and much more. Quarterly investment and plan committee meetings tie up senior employee schedule time as employers struggle with what seems like an ever-increasing workload of regulatory and compliance hurdles. Additionally, in most cases employers shoulder personal financial responsibility for any mistakes that might be inadvertently made in operating their plan.

5. What Makes Us So Unique? There Are A Lot Of Reasons. The decision to outsource your retirement plan to experienced industry professionals should be pretty straightforward. Either you want to retain total flexibility and responsibility (and liability) for plan oversight, or you’ve decided you would rather hand off almost all of the fiduciary duties and liability to a third party. Once that decision has been made, the next decision – who best to take over these duties – is equally important. We think this is where we have a huge advantage over the rest of the industry. We are unique in our ability to have brought the first multi-provider solution to the 401k Outsourcing marketplace. Our annual recurring plan revenue – which is fully disclosed in the personalized proposal we generate for your plan – is identical regardless of which provider is selected. We also rebate back all recurring “revenue sharing” as a credit against our annual asset based compensation fees. This strategy lowers your costsand increases your plan returns. Where it’s contractually possible, we will simply “carve out” all revenue sharing fees completely. Your custom plan proposal will provide complete details and additional information that you should read carefully. We were also the first program of our type in the country to utilize a CEFEX- Certified 3(38) Investment Manager on a multiple employer plan of this type. The Centre for Fiduciary Excellence (CEFEX) is an independent global assessment and certification organization. They work closely with investment fiduciaries and industry experts to provide comprehensive assessment programs to improve risk management for institutional and retail investors. CEFEX certification helps determine the trustworthiness of investment fiduciaries. This is an important point of differentiation that you and your employees need to fully appreciate. The annual CEFEX audit of fiduciary practices of the Investment Manager provides a high level of confidence and protection for the plan and the participants. Finally, we are industry leaders in terms of both experience and expertise in these types of programs. When the U.S. Department of Labor’s ERISA Advisory Council sought input on Outsourcing Employee Benefit Plan Services in 2014, The Platinum 401k CEO Terrance Power was asked to provide expert testimony before the group in Washington, D.C. The findings of the Council have already led to several bipartisan legislative proposals in Congress that are expected to greatly expand the availability and benefits of these types of programs across the country. We look forward to continuing to work with our supporters and friends in Washington to help broaden retirement plan coverage for working Americans. 5
