Open Architecture Daily Valuation Recordkeeping

We offer a true “open architecture” daily valuation recordkeeping platform, which enables the plan sponsor – with the guidance of its investment advisor – to create an investment arrangement tailored to the unique needs of the employer and its workforce. In creating the plan’s investment menu, the plan and its investment advisor have access to virtually the entire universe of mutual funds and ETFs, along with stable value funds, collective investment trusts, self-directed brokerage accounts, and managed accounts. From the plan’s menu of investments, the plan’s investment advisor is therefore able to create and manage a series of model portfolios. Model portfolios are professionally-managed asset allocations that have proven to dramatically simplify investment selection and encourage plan participation. At no additional cost, choosing a model portfolio gives employees peace-of-mind knowing that their mix of investments is appropriate for their age and level of risk tolerance.
