Smart401k Introduces À La Carte Service Options
Smart401k
is offering a new, flexible service delivery model for plan sponsors and
plan-level advisers.
Reported by PLANADVISER staff
Smart401k developed the model in anticipation of the Department of Labor’s release of the final definition of fiduciary.
The à la carte service model focuses on the need to provide menu options in an environment subject to fee and expense scrutiny.
“Plan sponsors and plan-level advisers want choice and the ability to customize their plan’s options. This customization allows each group to meet the needs of their participant base, while keeping costs under control,” said Scott Swezy, Smart401k vice president of strategy and distribution.
