Retirement Plans for your Practice
Retirement Plans for your Practice
Physicians and Dentists today face an increasing need to provide a retirement benefit for themselves and their employees. Retirement plans not only assist clients in fulfilling their dreams of pursuing financial independence sooner, but it also may provide significant tax advantages.
Designing the appropriate retirement plan is a crucial part of an integrated financial strategy. Prototype plans that are available to the masses have design limitations that can potentially prevent you from achieving your goals. We create customized plans that can help maximize your savings, and improve efficiency while reducing costs. SWC helps you identify solutions that make the most sense for your business. We utilize case designs that may incorporate IRS Safe Harbor rules, or more sophisticated solutions such as new comparability testing, multi-plan integrated benefits testing, or even a Cash Balance Plan.
