With our collective expertise, our team brings over 100 years of experience working with these various types of plans.

Plan Design

At The Pension Design Group, we guide employers in determining the purpose of the plan and assist with the provisions that help them reach their specific goals for their retirement plan. These goals typically include attracting and retaining talent while providing financial security for the participants. We assist in selecting the appropriate plan type—either a defined benefit plan that guarantees a specific benefit amount or a defined contribution plan that provides individual balances based on the plan design, investment choices, and contribution history.

PDG helps establish eligibility criteria outlining who can participate based on factors like age and service duration. We create vesting schedules specifying when employees fully own employer contributions and set contribution limits. We coordinate with your financial advisor for the plan and work with them to develop a plan for communicating and educating employees about the plan's features.
