• Currently, most participants' plans only take into consideration their target date of retirement or their risk tolerance. There is a better way to take both factors into consideration and maintain consistent communication with participants. Our solution combines the two most popular 401(k) investment options and updates clients' preferences annually.

• ABGRM's managed accounts solution provides an easy-to-use platform for clients and advisors to stay connected. Our platform makes it simple for advisors to manage rebalancing and adjusting clients glidepaths. We provide a quick yet thorough risk assessment tool that can be updated as necessary allowing changing financial lives to be reflected in investment decisions. Managed accounts clients also receive annual milestone messaging updating them on their progress and reminding them to adjust their risk assessment if needed.

  Our managed accounts solution gives advisors autonomy in investment choice, allows advisors to remain the fiduciary, and is highly flexible depending on the needs of advisors and their clients. Our managed accounts platform is highly customizable allowing for investments, the risk tolerance questionnaire, and the glidepath to be designed with your specific needs considered. Advisors can use ABGRM's low cost CIT's where the 3(38) fiduciary responsibility remains with us or advisors can use their own fund selection and take on the 3(38) responsibility themselves.

  ABGRM's managed accounts solution is fully integrated with our recordkeeping platform making clients' experience of tracking their retirement account seamless with an easy one-stop shop that is a step above what most participants have access to today.

• While managed accounts can provide better outcomes for clients who use them, one perceived limitation is higher costs. ABGRM's managed accounts can have fees as low as 25bps. ABGRM provides a managed accounts solution that keeps fees low while providing clients with a modular, extensible solution.
