RETIREMENT PLANS
For Employers
We specialize in retirement plans, providing a comprehensive suite of services for employers both small and large…and everything in between.
ADVISORY SERVICES
Advisory services are our bread and butter. Whether a 401(k), 403(b), SIMPLE IRA, or SEP IRA, we are best suited to work with plans anywhere from startup to $100M+ in assets, though most of our plans are in the $2-12M range. For all of our plans, Calder adheres to Federal Code section 3(38) Fiduciary Standard, assuming fiduciary liability for the selection and investment of plan investment options. This provides peace of mind to plan sponsors.
A typical advisor will help select the plan’s investment options and may also meet with employees, but our services expand far beyond that, inclusive of strategic consulting services for all employee benefits and a robust financial wellness program for employees.
