401(k) Plans

Employers that offer a 401(k) plan typically match a percentage or fixed dollar amount that correlates to employee contribution. We want to work together with you to create a plan that works best for your business and employees.

Contributions made from both the employer and employee are tax-deferred. Our 401(k) will help you have a higher earning potential than other individual IRA plans.1




SIMPLE IRA

Savings Incentive Match Plan for Employees (SIMPLE) IRA1 plans are an easy way to offer a tax-advantaged, company-sponsored retirement plan. This plan may benefit your business if it employs 100 or fewer employees and doesn’t provide any other retirement options.

How can a SIMPLE IRA benefit my business?

  • Pay minimal administration fees
  • Easily match employee contributions or match a fixed percentage of eligible employees’ pay
  • Contributions are deductible from our business expenses



SEP IRA

A Simplified Employee Pension Plan (SEP) IRA is a plan that offers flexibility. Every year, select a contribution amount to the SEP IRA on behalf of eligible employees. Contributions can be sent easily through data transmission.

How can a SEP IRA benefit my business?

  • Contributions made by you (the employer) will be tax-deductible2
