Challenges
A health provider had about 500 plan participants spread among multiple locations and worked directly with their plan recordkeeper. Plan participation was low and fees were high. When a local broker suggested a competing product as the solution, the Board of Directors instead decided it was time to hire a truly independent retirement plan consultant. MRPA was hired and immediately went to work. We conducted an in-depth RFP, set new standards for plan fees and investment selection, and recommended plan design changes to drive positive retirement outcomes.
