BSW Benefit Plans Plus Offers SBO 401k-PlanTM -- New Online Solution And Tools Available
Finally – there is a powerful retirement solution designed for the ultra small entrepreneur. The Small Business Owner 401k-Plan
TM (SBO-401k-Plan
TM) is intended exclusively for business owners with no employees other than a spouse and offers financial advisors a superior product for their clients.
"We know our clients are unique, they will not settle for an off-the-shelf 401k plan. Small business owners want a CHOICE that will accommodate their business model and allow them to expand their employee benefits. Financial Advisors want the flexibility of having unlimited choices to assist their clients in reaching investment goals. The SBO-401k-PlanTM is designed to do just that," says BSW Benefit Plans Plus, L.L.C., Manager Patrick Shelton, GBA.
With this new plan, individuals can save up to $40,000 annually by maximizing salary deferrals and employer contributions for 2003. For those ages 50 and over an additional $2,000 can be contributed for a total of $42,000.
To make this opportunity a reality, the team at Benefit Plans Plus (BPP) of St. Louis, has taken their services online to maximize convenience for the end user.
New Online Tools
During a quick visit to www.bpp401k.com the business owner or financial advisor can have their current plan analyzed for free, compare the benefits of a traditional SEP verses the SBO-401k-PlanTM by using BPP's exclusive Comparison Calculator and even apply online.
BPP's separate 401k Calculator allows the user to determine the annual tax savings of participating in a 401k plan and project future account balances. By using this tool, individuals can determine the best combination of withholdings and salary deferrals to maintain their take home pay while maximizing retirement savings.
The SBO-401k Plan
The unique feature of the SBO-401k-PlanTM is the flexibility of unlimited investment options. With this unparalleled plan, individual business owners can choose either self-directed or professional fund management at the financial institution of their choice. With this plan financial advisors can offer their smallest 401k clients access to almost any type of investment.
"I am not aware of any vendor who provides this type of retirement arrangement, our flexible investment options and online tools make the SBO-401k-PlanTM one-of-a-kind," says Shelton. "We want solo business owners and especially financial advisors across the nation to know there is a more flexible Individual 401k retirement plan available."
