An Investment Perspective That May Help Dentists
- Adherence to Modern Portfolio Theory, which is an investment approach that can optimize a portfolio based upon correlations and the capital asset pricing model.
- Focus on expense management by utilizing low cost mutual funds, ETFs and individual stock holdings when appropriate
- Our core strategy involves designing a low-cost portfolio that may help you pursue your long-term goals. A portion of the portfolio leverages short-term movements in the market, which is a tactic that may enhance your overall performance
Retirement Plan Management Services for Dentists
A retirement plan might provide big tax savings, but it can also be a major hassle. You have a legal liability to your employees to make sure contributions are done correctly, costs are reasonable, and education is provided that may help them make the most of the plan. Make a misstep and the penalty can be substantial.
Our turnkey service will help try to make the process both profitable and less painful. Work with us and you can expect:
- No Conflict of Interest - Although we do have negotiated pricing with multiple third-party administrators and record keepers only you pay us, so you’ll be confident that our recommendations are only in your best interest.
- 3(21) Fiduciary Responsibility–We’ll select and monitor your fund menu and share the legal responsibility for our recommendations. You’ll receive a semi-annual Scorecard report that evaluates existing funds and suggests alternatives if warranted.
- Competitive Costs – We periodically compare the overall pricing of your plan to other similar plans to ensure that your costs stay below average.
- A Dedicated Service Team – You’ll have a team assigned to your plan that may help coordinate among all parties involved including TPA and record keeping firms. We design a strategic low-cost portfolio that may help you pursue your long-term goals, and we also dedicate a portion of that portfolio to leveraging the short-term movements of the market, which is a tactic that may enhance your overall performance. Our team can also assist with enrollments and employee education.
