8 Retirement Plans in Your Book of Business?
0? 1-2? 3-5? More than 5? By a show of hands, how many of you manage (read thru, scan room) After, ask if any are managing SEPs or Simplified Employee Pension plans. For use with financial professionals only. Not for public distribution.

9 Why Retirement Plans? Diversification Deepening client relationships
“Sticky” assets Recurring business, consistent flow Access to individual relationships as well as IRA rollovers Read slide When you say ‘recurring business, consistent flow’ you may also mention that traditional retirement plans also afford the option of additional flow over and above what the employer would contribute since the employee can make contributions as well. IRS limitations for contributions allows the employer and/or employee to contribute more with a traditional retirement plan versus a SEP plan (employer contributions only). In addition, as the advisor, encouraging the set up of match incentives, automatic plan increase, etc…may result in increased flow over time. For use with financial professionals only.

13 Fees Types of fees may include:
Billed fees Investment management fees Additional asset management fees Earn your business statement- “If I can lower your fees and put a strategy in place to improve the service and efficiency of your plan, can I earn your business?” When reviewing a plan fees and expenses, plan sponsors should know the types of fees that may be associated with their plan. Some types of fees are: billed fees, investment management fees, and additional asset management fees. We’re going to focus on addressing the lowering investment side of fees in retirement plans, resulting in overall cost savings to the plan For use with financial professionals only.

14 Prospecting Idea- Integrate Index Investments into Retirement Plans
Transition slide For use with financial professionals only. Not for public distribution.

15 Growing adoption Asset breakdown as a percentage of total DC assets 2004 2012 As you can also see, index funds are continuing to make up a greater portion of total DC plan assets – 28% in 2004 compared to 50% in 2012. A report published by The McKinny Group in 2007 predicted that by the year 2015, index assets would make up 24% of total DC plan assets. Index assets are growing at a much faster pace then many industry experts had predicted some years back.

16 Benefits of Indexing Advantages Considerations Reduction in plan costs
Benchmark performance Consistent exposure to asset classes Diversification of investment strategies Considerations No chance for outperformance vs. a benchmark Average expense ratios1 Index and active mutual funds, institutional only While the decision to incorporate index funds as part of a plan’s overall investment strategy should align with the needs of the general plan population and plan goals, there are some standard advantages and considerations for every plan to think about. The graph to the right showcases the difference in average expenses between actively managed funds and index funds. Index funds tend to cost much less because it is not necessary for portfolio managers to actively monitor them; meaning that underlying investments are not being routinely traded in and out. The underlying investments mirror that of their benchmark and so they have more of a “buy and hold” approach. In addition, there is not the extensive research and due diligence required on the part of the investment team for an index fund. 1.

31 Disclosures Target Date Funds are designed for people who plan to retire and begin taking withdrawals during or near a specific year. These funds use a strategy that reallocates equity exposure to a higher percentage of fixed investments; the funds will shift assets from equities to fixed-income investments over time. As a result, the funds become more conservative over time as you approach retirement. It’s important to remember that no strategy can assure a profit or prevent a loss in a declining market and the principal value of the Target Date Funds is not guaranteed at any time, including the target date. Target Date Funds are designed to provide diversification and asset allocation across several types of investments and asset classes, primarily by investing in underlying funds. Therefore, in addition to the expenses of the Target Date Funds, an investor is indirectly paying a proportionate share of the applicable fees and expenses of the underlying funds. The principal amounts invested into these funds are not guaranteed at any point and may lose value. The AUL Stable Value Account is provided through an AUL Group Annuity Contract and is supported by the general account of AUL.
