What is a Starter 401(k) Plan? CUI Wealth Management recently published an article on this. Here is a summary. Are you a small business owner looking for a cost-effective way to offer your employees a retirement plan? If so, you may be interested in learning about the recently introduced "Starter 401(k)" plan. This option is designed to help small companies provide a retirement plan to their employees without breaking the bank or getting bogged down in complex administrative tasks. One of the main benefits of these plans is that eligible employees are automatically enrolled, with contribution limits up to $6,000 and a $1,000 catch-up contribution for those over 50. However, it's important to note that Starter 401(k) plans have limited plan design flexibility compared to traditional 401(k)s. For example, they only allow for elective deferrals and don't offer the option for employer contributions. If you're interested in exploring retirement plan options for your small business, be sure to check out the article for more details on Starter 401(k) plans and compare this to other available options like SIMPLE IRAs, SEP IRAs, and traditional 401(k)s. #RetirementPlanning #SmallBusiness #401k #HR #CUIWealth #CUIBenefits #CUIAgency

Providing your employees with the opportunity to save through a 401(k) retirement plan is a valuable benefit that helps them build financial security for retirement. Any company that provides a 401(k) needs to be aware of mandatory government compliance tests that ensure a company's plan does not discriminate in favor of highly compensated or key employees. Compliance testing ensures that companies administer their 401(k) plans fairly and equally, in accordance with the rules established by the Employment Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) of 1974. https://ow.ly/g6Fv50SueKE #401k #403b #Pensionmark #orangecounty #oc #retirement #planadviser #fiduciary #retirementplanning #financialplanning #pension
