SERVICES
Retirement Plan Consulting
Our professional investment advisors are well trained and experienced with working directly with retirement plan participants.
Using specific investment models, our advisors work hand in hand with plan participants to help them implement asset allocation strategies that address the needs of their individual retirement savings goals.
Wealth Management
As the financial landscape has grown in complexity, JWTI believes a tactical approach to investing is necessary to help our investors pursue their goals.
We put a lot of thought into integrating our exceptional cababilites in a way that makes sense for each of our clients and continually expand our wealth management services to address our clients' future needs.
RETIRE RITE - PARTICIPANT EDUCTION PROGRAM
Developed by JWTI the Retire Rite program targets plan participants who potentially have savings obstacles and offers them investment education and investment advice. The process is on-going and continuously reminds the participant that potential obstacles may exist.
We believe Retire Rite makes the 401(K) benefit more easily appreciated and valued by employees.
​
Fiduciary Plan Benchmarking
Plan Fiduciaries are required to ensure they are "paying only reasonable plan expenses." To this point, fee benchmarking analysis should consider quality, service, and value metrics in addition to fees when determining reasonableness.
​
Our fee benchmarking reports are designed to be simple, transparent, and practical. We realize that Plan Fiduciaries have different approaches as it relates to satisfying their obligations so we have developed a number of services to assist in evaluating your specific needs.
