UNIFI Retirement Targets $3-$20 Million Plan Market
LINCOLN, NE, March 2, 2009 -- UNIFI Companies Retirement Plans announces a new addition to its UNIFI Retirement Advantage Series® of retirement plans' group annuity products issued by Ameritas Life Insurance Corp. and The Union Central Life Insurance Company. UNIFI Retirement Advantage EliteSM targets the $3-$20 million retirement plans market with some very competitive features.
"Advantage Elite is sophisticated, yet easy to understand," says Drew Powers, Vice President, Retirement Plans. "For example, there is complete fee transparency. There is only one asset management fee charged against the plan's assets, eliminating much of the confusion associated with so many retirement plans' fee structures."
Powers adds that Advantage Elite is a product that can "grow and mature with our clients' success. With our multi-product portfolio, Advantage Elite becomes the continuum for sustaining the relationship with UNIFI Companies Retirement Plans. There's no need to switch to another provider as a business grows."
Along with fee transparency, Advantage Elite's clients benefit from a Client Relationship Manager who coordinates all aspects of the retirement plan. This experienced individual helps with plan conversions, ensures the smooth transition to UNIFI Retirement Plans' on-going service team, and serves as a valuable asset to plan sponsors in helping them satisfy important fiduciary responsibilities. All products in the UNIFI Retirement Advantage Series make available three effective fiduciary resources: Fiduciary Handbook, Fiduciary Investment SafeguardSM and Portfolio PlaybookSM.
Ed Deeds, Vice President, Retirement Plans Sales, points out that Advantage Elite was built specifically with the $3+ million retirement plans marketplace in mind. "Along with its simplicity of fee transparency, Advantage Elite broadens our advisors reach into the retirement plans market. It's a product that can fully serve the Retirement Plans advisor, whether commission-based or fee-based RIA (Registered Investment Advisor) sales."
The UNIFI Retirement Advantage Series also includes UNIFI Retirement Advantage SelectSM, a group annuity. Both products feature favorable service and support, an investment platform that is strong and diverse, and a rigorous process for the selection and monitoring of funds.
