Pensions

JF Actuarial Services is a Pre-Approved Plan Sponsor under Rev. Proc. 2005-16. We are able to provide clients with a high degree of plan design flexibility at considerable savings over the cost of an individually drafted plan. We offer the advantages of the Pre-Approved Plan approach to comply with the latest tax laws, but we can also provide an individually designed plan if necessary to meet a client's documentation requirements.

The most appropriate qualified plan for a given client may be a profit sharing plan, a money purchase plan, a 401(k) plan, a defined benefit pension plan or a combination of these alternatives. The ideal investment medium may be a stock brokerage account, a mutual fund or an insurance product. We help our clients navigate the maze of available options without crushing them under details.

Unlike many pension consultants, our firm is not compensated by any provider of financial services, through commissions, 12b1 fees, management overrides, or other means. We perform services strictly on a "fee for service" basis, either through fixed fees or hourly charges. We are licensed by the federal government to perform actuarial services for qualified pension plans, and have provided plan design and administrative services to a broad range of retirement plans, funded through virtually all types of investment vehicles, for over 25 years.

Consulting Philosophy

As pension actuaries, our goal in each record keeping and consulting engagement is to ensure that the plan is administered in accordance with its provisions, and that it is properly designed, adequately funded, and in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. We believe that the following three attributes are central to the success of any consulting engagement.

Technical Ability

The consulting actuaries of JF Actuarial Services have the highest professional credentials. We are associated with professional bodies of actuaries where association is achieved by some of the highest educational and testing requirements of any professional organization.

Communication Skills

Our staff communicates pertinent technical information in a clear and concise manner. Furthermore, we listen to our clients and attempt to provide practical and innovative solutions to problems.

Economic Performance

Our fees are commensurate with the services we perform. We make every effort to convey clearly the cost of our services and indicate areas of possible savings. Our only product is service. It is our task to provide the service desired and expected of us by our clients. We do our utmost to be flexible in this regard and will tailor specific services to fit your expressed needs.
