The SECURE Act – Bringing Pooled Employer Plans Back to Forefront

Pooled Employer Plan (PEP) options broadened for small business owners on January 1, 2020 through the SECURE Act. However with COVID-19 and the CARES Act, discussion around PEPs hasn’t seemed forefront.

Deb Rubin, VP and Managing Director at Transamerica, is here to help you understand the SECURE Act, new Pooled Employer Plan options available, and what you need to know for your clients.

Deb will discuss the various types of pooled asset arrangement retirement plans – the differences, advantages, and disadvantages of each.  She will also touch on current proposed legislation, what to look for from record keepers, and tips for Advisors and TPAs on establishing these plans for their practice. The goal is to help you understand these plan types, how to discuss options with your clients, and if they are a good fit for your practice.

Deadline for registration is September 21^st; attendance is free to PECA members and $25 to non-members.

2 hours of CE credit are available for ASPPA and NIPA. CE should be self-reported and Certificates of Participation will be provided. We will report CE for ERPA to the IRS on your behalf if requested. Each attendee must register and log in the webinar individually to watch and listen to the presentation to receive CE credit. Listening by phone or in a group will not qualify for CE credit.

Our webinar will be delivered via Zoom, courtesy of ERISApedia.com. Once you have registered on the PECA website for this event, a link will be sent to you for the ERISApedia.com platform.
