Retirement planning. The very concept frightens many people—including the majority of smaller business owners and self-employed professionals. Individuals are often intimidated by the seemingly impossible sums of money they must accumulate for a comfortable future. Business owners are overwhelmed by the costs and complexity of establishing a qualified benefit plan.

Yet for every individual, retirement planning is essential to a secure future. And for every employer, a retirement program is rapidly becoming an essential benefit to attract and retain qualified employees.

Most large corporations offer employees 401(k) plans. But only 10% of businesses with under 50 employees have implemented these plans. Why? Because until now, these valuable programs have been expensive, with complex government regulations aimed at big business. So it's very likely that many of your Association members have not yet dealt with retirement planning, though it may prove key to their personal and business futures.

Now, your Association can help. With An Affordable Retirement Benefit Program Specifically Designed For Smaller And Mid-Sized Businesses.

The MBA Group is proud to introduce The RTF Retirement Program. The RTF program is a top quality retirement investment program developed to meet the needs of businesses with 1-200 employees. It offers an important range of investment options, plus comprehensive customer communications and service. The startup and administration costs are substantially lower than any other retirement planning program we have found for smaller businesses.

And it is being offered by The MBA Group exclusively through business and trade associations. So it's not only a powerful way to help your members, it's also a powerful membership recruitment and retention tool for your Association.

Here are a few details: 

The MBA Group provides a broad range of employee benefit programs to more than 20,000 small businesses throughout New England. Since 1965, we have offered a  comprehensive roster of health insurance plans, as well as life and disability insurance programs. With the increasing publicity concerning the long-term viability of Social Security and the need for tax-deferred savings like 401(k) plans, more and more companies came to us asking for a program that would meet their retirement planning needs. We researched virtually every provider of 401(k) plans, in search of a program we felt confident would satisfy our standards for the benefits we offer. The RTF Retirement Program was the clear winner. As a result of the response to the program, we believe that it is too valuable not to share. That is why we are making it available to business and trade associations, for the benefit of their own memberships. The RTF Retirement Program is designed to make every aspect of retirement benefit planning easy for smaller business owners, including sole proprietors. The program includes:
