401k & 403b Plans

Minich MacGregor Wealth Management acts as a fiduciary advisor for a number of plan sponsors that are our clients. We are committed to setting the standard and raising the bar for retirement plans.

Many plan sponsors enlist the expertise of retirement plan professionals to implement prudent processes. At MMWM, we believe in holding retirement plan professionals to the same high standard as plan sponsors. This is why we recommend hiring an advisor with fiduciary responsibility in writing at both the plan and participant levels.

Why Choose a Fiduciary?
Our Process

About Plan Sponsors and Fiduciaries

Plan sponsors are responsible for providing and overseeing retirement plans. They are held to the highest legal standard with respect to all aspects of the plan. Plan sponsors are responsible for selecting the vendors, investment options and plan design. They must also provide the plan participants information and education.

Choosing a Fiduciary Advisor like Minich MacGregor Wealth Management ensures a relationship of trust, a commitment to excellence, and a process that prioritizes data-driven decisions and transparency in the best interest of both plan sponsors & participants.
