401K Capabilities
CGI Financial Services works with corporate and non-profit clients to help increase the effectiveness and maximize their investment in retirement plan offerings. CGI helps build a complete retirement plan offering, provide a proven and effective process for fiduciary management, educate and cultivate employee participation and successfully monitor plan investments.
Retirement Plan Audit
Using our experience, technical knowledge and administration partners, CGI will perform a thorough review of all the components of your plan including: plan design, investments, participation rates, fiduciary oversight, education program, testing, and administrative procedures. From the results of our plan review, we will provide comments and insight into plan changes if necessary; setting a clear path to a more effective program.
Vendor Search and Selection
We work with you to develop the criteria that will match your goals and needs to the appropriate 401(k) provider. We will prepare a custom request for proposal, analyze vendor proposals and provide recommendations based upon the results of the search. Once a plan is chosen, we will work with all service providers to help implement the plan efficiently.
Initial Fund Lineup Selection and Screening
Using prudent fiduciary criteria, we will screen the market of all available investment options and assist in selecting prudent investment choices in all major asset classes, ensuring a diversified array of appropriate fund choices for participants.
Participant Education and Communication
We will work with the existing vendor communication and educational presentations or if needed provide customized enrollment and educational material to enhance the plan’s participation and success. Incorporating client needs, we will develop an effective employee education program that will increase participation as well as plan appreciation.
Fiduciary Management
Having an established process and framework from which investment decisions are made is a critical component to overall fiduciary management. Using prudent fiduciary methodology, we will help draft an effective Investment Policy Statement that will govern investment decisions. We will provide analysis, research and recommendations that coincide with the Investment Policy Statement.
Annual Review
We will conduct an annual review of plan performance to be sure the plan is performing up to expectations. We will review participation rates, demographic trends and utilization to maximize plan success.
Investment Monitoring
Using advanced fund monitoring tools, we provide on-going investment monitoring corresponding with the Investment Policy Statement. We will meet with your investment committee members to review investment returns, expenses, risk/return characteristics, manager changes and style drift.
