Supplemental Executive Retirement Plans
Building a better retirement plan.Empower your key executives with a path to full retirement.
Your executives probably realize they need to plan for the "retirement gap" due to government limits on employee and employer contributions to tax-favored qualified plans. These limits can leave your top executives exposed, with a retirement of only 30% to 50% of their salary. That's simply not enough savings to sustain their current standard of living, and finding ways to make up the difference can feel daunting.
A supplemental executive retirement plan (SERP) gives you a great way to bump up their savings and let them know they're valued. With a SERP, your domestic and international executives save more income than they can with a qualified plan.
To avoid the restrictive requirements of a qualified ERISA plan, you might only informally fund a nonqualified plan or leave the obligation unfinanced.
We can work with you to find best funding method based on your financial characteristics and the degree of risk that works for you and your executives.
