Company Profile

Value to the Sponsor

Our company addresses the complexities of administering your qualified retirement plan, with expertise in a constantly changing industry. At the same time, we can provide significant cost savings and increase profitability. Let us demonstrate that it simply doesn't make sense to manage your retirement plan in-house.

In addition to designing and maintaining your plan and amendments, we also look after these important aspects of your plan:

• Total and easy access to information for you and your employees
• Accurate, timely reports to you and your employees
• Trustee services
• Discrimination Testing and Government reporting
• Reduced liability, cost, and complexity

On behalf of our clients, we manage the often complex relationship between you and your Registered Representative (RR) or Registered Investment Advisor (RIA). The RR or RIA becomes a co-fiduciary on the investments in your portfolio, reducing the complexity of investment choices as well as the risk and the liability associated with those investments.

Optionally, we can demonstrate our unique ability by designing, installing, and managing a transparent interface between your record-keeping systems and ours. To your staff and your employees we will appear to be a simple extension of your own information systems. You and they will see no difference between our system and yours.

Since I AM, inc, is, itself, a plan sponsor, we have a special understanding of your needs. Our background and experience is in improving productivity and profitability. We know that a proactive approach to plan management will help you attract and retain employees. Whether you are just starting or have been up and running and need to improve your service, we can help you.

Participant Peace of Mind

To your employees (plan participants), there is nothing more important than financial peace of mind. Just like you, we have deep regard for the fact that nothing is more important to them than the hard-earned money they have put away for their retirement. Therefore, we assure them that:

• We create options for them at retirement
• They always have easy access to their account information
• We provide prompt response to all their retirement plan questions
• We provide prompt response to transition regulations
• We offer them education, tools, and sound advice
