401(k) Plan

VEGAS CHAMBER 401(K) PLAN DETAILS

 

The Vegas Chamber 401(k) Plan is Now Available – Affordable Association Retirement Plan (ARP) for Members

The Vegas Chamber now offers an Association Retirement Plan (ARP) to help our small business members access more affordable and robust 401(k) investment options. The announcement comes after the US Department of Labor (DOL) issued regulations governing ARPs.

The Vegas Chamber is among the first associations (and likely the very first) in the United States to offer an ARP. It has been working with the DOL, as well as retirement plan experts, to establish a robust ARP to help you provide high-quality retirement plan choices. The plan is open for enrollment.

Currently, small businesses are often limited by retirement plan choices and incur higher administrative fees because they don’t have the buying power of a larger company. The new ARP rule, effective now, allows multiple small employers to pool their assets. By joining together through the Vegas Chamber ARP, small businesses will be able to attract a better deal from investment advisors as well as enjoy lower fees.

Another benefit of the Vegas Chamber ARP is that members that utilize the plan do not need to worry about many of the administrative duties, such as IRS filings, as these functions will be handled on behalf of employers by the association.
