A qualified plan can provide tax savings for your business today and accumulate assets for you for tomorrow.

Consider the following:

  • A qualified plan can provide an immediate tax deduction for your business.
  • Contributions to the plan are not currently taxable as income to the participants.
  • Contributions accumulate tax-deferred until withdrawn.1
  • Qualified plan assets are generally protected from creditors.
  • If you have a need for life insurance, premiums can be paid for with pre-tax dollars through the plan.

This all sounds good, but you may think that a qualified plan won’t work for you because you have to contribute for your employees as well. But, a qualified plan may actually save you money because the tax savings may be more than the contributions that need to be made for the employees.

Wouldn’t you rather help your employees save for retirement than pay taxes?
