What does this partnership mean to our clients who offer or want to offer their employees and retirement solution?
It means we have the flexibility to meet your needs
[Program Name] Choice Pooled Solutions℠ product set consists of two plan configurations: Retirement Plan Exchange® and Choice Pooled Solutions℠ (PEP).
COMPARING YOUR OPTIONS
The Retirement Plan Exchange allows individual sponsors to select from a menu of cost-effective options to build a single employer retirement plan and configure a support team.
The Choice PEP treats the plans of multiple unrelated employers as one large plan and allows employers to choose from two cost-effective investment platform options.
The Core Benefits
If you administer your own retirement solution you are personally liable for the plan. The new solution takes on the fiduciary risk.
The list of duties that accompanies administering your own solution is long and tedious. TAG resources remove over 90% of those administrative duties.
This solution gives you time back to focus on your business. Your employees can focus on building your business. Not administering your retirement plan.
Having a retirement solution administered by professionals can help attract new talent and help retain your top employees.
How does our new solution give you time back?
A major DIFFERENTIATOR of [Program Name] Choice Pooled Solutions℠ for you as a participating employer is the reduced administrative tasks you have to perform on your [401(k)/403(b)].
[Program Name] Choice Pooled Solutions℠ takes on over 90% of your administrative duties
YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES WITHOUT [Program Name] Transamerica Choice Pooled Solutions℠
VS
YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES WITH [Program Name] Transamerica Choice Pooled Solutions℠
An employer who sponsors a retirement plan for their employees has overriding fiduciary responsibility for the plan. This solution allows the employer to outsource that responsibility to the highest degree.
