EMP ranked number one in top ten Cleveland area-based companies with the highest rated 401(k) plans containing more than $100 million in assets.
CANTON, OH — Raymond James, Belden Branch, announces that Emergency Medicine Physicians (EMP) was ranked number one among the top ten Cleveland area-based companies with the highest rated 401(k) plans containing more than $100 million in assets by BrightScope, the leading independent provider of retirement plan ratings in the nation.
Charles Evans, Retirement Plan Consultant for Raymond James, Belden Branch, and the lead advisor responsible for advising the EMP 401(k)/Profit Sharing Plan, comments on the BrightScope rating, “In an industry that lacks global benchmarking, being able to demonstrate and measure plan performance and efficiency can be challenging. Having an independent third party like BrightScope assign a top rating to a 401(k) plan which we consult and manage is validation that we are attaining the high standards that we strive to achieve for each of our plan sponsor clients. Most importantly, it reveals that we are steering the plan on the right course, a course that ultimately benefits the plan’s participants.”
Dominic Bagnoli, CEO of EMP, comments on EMP’s 401(k)/Profit Sharing Plan rating. “We are proud to offer one of the top ten 401(k) plans in the greater Cleveland area, as evaluated by BrightScope. We place a high value on taking care of our employees and this is just one of the ways we can help them plan for the future.”
EMP’s plan was also ranked in the top 15% of plans for Account Balances, Company Generosity, Investment Menu Quality and Salary Deferral by BrightScope.
