NAPA BLACK BOOK 2017 | napa-net.org

‘Back’ in BLACK

They say that the third time’s a “charm,” and this — the third edition of NAPA Net’s “Black Book” — is certainly bigger, and arguably better, than its predecessors. And while in sports it’s said that that you can’t tell the players without a scorecard, when it comes to the organizations and entities that support advisors, this year’s Black Book should certainly fill that bill.

For one thing, there are more firms represented in each of the main categories, including last year’s new category. You'll also find that addition — third-party administrators, or TPAs — to be even more robust than the inaugural listing.

This year we have added not one, but two new categories. “Tools & Technology,” the first of these, is admittedly something of a catch-all for a wide-ranging array of — well, tools and technologies — that can expand and enhance your capabilities.

We are particularly excited to debut a new section on financial wellness. We’ve previously noted that the definitions of financial wellness, if not the appropriate evaluation metrics, can be somewhat elusive. In this inaugural presentation we have not attempted to draw lines around either, but rather present you a refined directory of sorts with lists of the services offered by each, along with some indication of firm size, location and client focus.

The goal this year, as it was last, is to pull together in a single handy reference guide key information points about key advisor partners: the size and scope of their business, target markets, select historical data trends, and of course, the means to reach out to find out more.

You’ll want to take particular note of those who, as NAPA Firm Partners, support the mission of the National Association of Plan Advisors in a special way. We’ve noted them in the pages that follow, with a special logo indicating that status. In a very real sense, what we do here in all its aspects — education, advocacy, and information — is made possible by their support, as well as that of our advertisers, many of whom are also Firm Partners.

In this day and age, one might well wonder why this information is being produced in such a traditional format. The answer, quite simply, is that many of our readers will find this medium easier to reference and review. It can — and we hope it will — be a resource that you can keep at your fingertips throughout the year. However, as we did last year, there is an enhanced online version (for NAPA Firm Partners) under the Partner

Corner tab at www.napa-net.org, and once again it will also be available in a digital version via the NAPA App. This will allow you to not only readily search throughout the publication, but to share profiles and other information via email or social media with your peers and colleagues.

In an industry where change, turnover and consolidation are the norm, it can be hard to keep up, and to keep up with the information you need when you need it. Indeed, it’s incredible to look back on what’s happened in the years since we published the inaugural NAPA Black Book, and realize just how much change has occurred.

So many of you have commented to me over the past two years on how useful this guide was as a resource in your practice. I’m sure you will find this year’s version to be even more so, and look forward to your comments and suggestions to make it an even more vital tool in the months ahead.

Thanks again, as always, for your support of NAPA, and our information resources.

NEVIN E. ADAMS, JD ≥ Editor-in-Chief nevin.adams@usaretirement.org

DCIOs THE

Defined Contribution Investment Only providers, better known as DCIOs, are an essential part of the DC business, and their wholesalers have become an integral part of many advisory practices.

DDefined Contribution Investment Only providers, better known as DCIOs, are an essential component of the burgeoning defined contribution space. More significantly, as evidenced by the prominence of key wholesalers in NAPA’s annual ranking of Top DC Wholesalers, these “wingmen” are an integral component of many advisory practices.

Not only are these DCIO wholesalers among the most knowledgeable resources to advisors, these days the vast majority of resources now available to plan advisors, even those created by third parties, have been made available courtesy of DCIOs. DCIO wholesalers have become de facto practice management experts, helping advisors not only manage their practice, but also sharing competitive information about what other advisors are doing.

The long-running bull market for stocks and improving net sales are boosting DCIO asset bases. As of June 30, 2017, the average manager experienced 12-month asset growth of 12%, much of which came during the first half, when the average growth rate was 9%, according to Sway Research. The average respondent to Sway’s “The State of DCIO Distribution” survey generated $393 million of net sales in the first half of 2017 and $1.32 billion in 2016 — a big improvement from the midway point of 2016, when the average manager had $21 million in net redemptions from its DCIO unit, according to Sway Research. At that time, over half of managers surveyed had experienced net outflows, though this dropped to 40% of managers in the first half of 2017.

The DCIO market has undergone substantial changes in recent years, and managers have had to adapt. Sway Research notes that some of the rebound in DCIO sales stems from increased focus on a couple of non-traditional channels, including third-party fiduciaries, such as Morningstar, Mesirow, Leafhouse Financial and others, that are behind the scenes selecting and monitoring managers in 3(38) models and other asset allocation solutions. Indeed, nearly two-thirds of managers surveyed by Sway believe model-driven solutions will soon drive the majority of DCIO sales.

Though the average manager can only track 54% of DCIO sales to their source, this is an upgrade over the 49% average in 2016, and Sway notes that it appears to be linked to a rise in the use of data aggregation services.

On the pages that follow you’ll find information regarding the firms that, though they make their living selling/promoting and supporting investment products, bring so much more to the table.

We are all human. We all have emotions. Emotions do not belong in the investment decision making process. We created rules-based processes to make the buy and sell decisions for our clients, so they don’t have to.

THERECORDKEEPERS

Recordkeepers are perhaps in the strongest position of all providers, since they control the technology and, perphaps more importantly, the data that runs DC plans. However, consolidation continues to affect this segment of the market, leaving more power in the hands of fewer recordkeepers.

There is perhaps no partner component more integral to a smooth plan operation than those responsible for the establishment and maintenance of individual participant and plan records. And yet, arguably there is no partner component more pressed by increasing costs and an on-going need to upgrade and update their operations. This at a time when heightened scrutiny of long-standing practices such as revenue-sharing are placing even more pressure on income streams.

Not helping matters? That even the industry’s most ardent champions routinely refer to these crucial services as a “commodity.”

Consolidation has worked to the advantage of some providers, who have managed to broaden their target markets with key acquisitions. In some cases that has left a vacuum for those who now seek to specialize in particular markets, notably those serving smaller plans. And while the Labor Department’s fiduciary regulation primarily targeted advisor compensation, there’s little question that, like most regulations, it will also have an impact here.

Consolidation remains the order of the day — though for an industry that has ostensibly been roiled by consolidation of one form or another for at least 30 years now — a remarkably robust, though shrinking, roster of players remains, as attested by the pages that follow.

That said, things are quieter on the consolidation front this year, with only about a half dozen deals in 2016, and none the kind of “game changers” that dominated the headlines a year ago. Does that mean we’re done with recordkeeping consolidation? Hardly.

But as you can see on the pages that follow, there is still a robust number of options from which to choose.

DISTRIBUTORS

THE BROKER DEALERS & RIAs

Financial advisors need to affiliate with a broker dealer (BD) or registered investment advisor (RIA) in order to sell investments (other than annuities) within DC plans.

Financial advisors need to affiliate with a broker-dealer (BD) or registered investment advisor (RIA) in order to sell investments (other than annuities) within DC plans.

There are three basic platforms they can choose from:

1. Wire houses, or those platforms where the plan advisor is an employee

2. Independent BDs, where the advisor is a 1099 contractor

3. RIAs, where the advisor has no affiliation with a BD

A growing number of experienced plan advisors these days fall into a category called “hybrids,” meaning they affiliate with a BD and an RIA. That RIA can be owned and controlled by the BD with which they are affiliated, or the advisor can own and run it independently. Furthermore, there’s a growing crop of specialty groups, many of which are affiliated with an established BD, that focus on supporting plan advisors. Some of those groups require a BD or RIA change, while others do not.

Some experienced advisors are joining these specialty groups to leverage their intellectual capital and support as well as the brand. As with BDs, some require the advisor to be an employee, while others allow advisors to remain independent. Other advisors choose to remain independent, usually affiliating with a BD that has allocated at least a minimal amount of support in the form of home office personnel and the tools that advisors need to run a DC practice.

Looming over all this (still) is the Labor Department’s fiduciary rule, specifically its potential impact on business structures, practices and compensation.

Regardless, this is a resilient industry that has long had to anticipate and respond to the winds of regulatory and legislative change, even if the transitions haven’t always been easy, painless or as initially anticipated. Pundits have long — and frequently — predicted massive changes that didn’t come to be and glossed over change that at the time seemed relatively insignificant, but with the perspective of time turned out to be truly “game changing.”

Advisors — and the firms that support them and their practices — would be well-advised to stay tuned for changes that, though affected and influenced by the DOL rule, will be driven mostly by the continued sway of a dynamic marketplace.

FIRM PROFILE

Sheridan Road Financial, LLC was founded by Daniel Bryant and Jim O'Shaughnessy in 2005. While the firm was founded in 2005, the predecessor company dates back more than 60 years. Jim O'Shaughnessy's grandfather started in the pension consulting and administration business in 1948. Jim's father, Clark O'Shaughnessy, joined the business in the 1960s and helped build Penco Financial (Penco) into a leading retirement plan consulting and administration firm. In today's vernacular, Penco was a Chicago-based third party administrator (TPA), advisory and actuarial firm with thousands of corporate and not-for-profit clients throughout the country. In 1988, Penco focused exclusively on providing retirement plan advice to corporations and not-for-profit entities. In the early 1990s, Jim became a partner and assumed the role as the principal retirement plan consultant. This business was rebranded and merged into Sheridan Road in January 2005.

TPAs THE

A TPA can be a plan advisor’s best friend. But it’s important to understand the various types of TPAs and how to best leverage them depending on the plan profile and size.

The term “third-party” harkens back to a realization that these firms, as with recordkeepers generally, provide services to a plan sponsor that plan sponsors once did for themselves. Yes, that was mostly in a time before there were 401(k)s (not to mention daily valuation).

Things have grown significantly more complicated over the years, though, and today TPAs not only keep up with participant accounts, they can be an invaluable resource to plan sponsors — and advisors — on issues like regulatory compliance and plan design.

A TPA can be a plan advisor’s best friend. But it’s important to understand the various types of TPAs and how to best leverage them depending on the plan profile and size.

The TPAs listed on the pages that follow have a focus on working with advisors. That’s critically important in forming a mutually beneficial partnership predicated on a solid appreciation for what each member brings to the relationship and shared clients.

As with everything in life, the relationship and cultural fit is paramount. And the choice to use a TPA may depend on the size of a plan or the plan sponsor’s particular needs. On the pages that follow, you’ll find the information you need to evaluate the best fit(s) for your practice.

As a Non-Producing, Fee-For-Service TPA firm, created and controlled by experienced industry professionals, our focus is not only on setting our clients up with the best possible retirement plan(s) that meets their needs, but perhaps as equally important, creating a client experience that is second to none. With a dedicated plan administrator and service response times among the best in the industry, superior service is our differentiator.

In addition to traditional retirement plan administration services, we offer document reviews and detailed plan illustrations as part of our value add proposition. Our goal is to help distinguish you from your competition.

Working alongside financial advisors, retirement plan wholesalers and plan sponsors alike in designing, consulting and administering retirement plans, Legacy’s primary objective is ensuring your clients’ best possible “future” outcome.

TOOLS & TECHNOLOGY

Tools to enhance your trade

These days there’s a thin (and frequently non-existent) line between “tools” and technology, certainly among the implements that expand and enhance an advisor’s capabilities array. They are, nonetheless, an essential component, and one that requires a regular assessment in a time of ever-present, constant change.

Perhaps not surprisingly, many of the offerings in the pages that follow in this inaugural section bring enhanced advice/guidance capabilities to the table, several provide help with asset allocation, and still others expand the reach and quality of participant communications. Having trouble tracking down lost participants? There’s help for that as well.

Doubtless in the months ahead, new offerings will come to the fore — all the better, since the best advisors are always looking for ways to improve, expand and enhance their practice.

PRODUCT/SERVICE CATEGORY

Asset Allocation, Advice/Guidance, Administrative Services, Trustee/ Custody, Consulting/Plan Design, Participant Communications, Lost Participants, Software, Other

PRODUCT/SERVICE DESCRIPTION

ATArchitect: Think of the ATArchitect as a combination of a personal financial forecaster and an investment manager. It determines the appropriate amount of risk and time needed to help participants reach their retirement goal, and then executes the plan. Participants have different goals and risk tolerances at various stages in their life, so why treat them all the same? ATArchitect is the next generation solution for participants.

The ATArchitect is a proprietary, sustainable retirement strategy that automatically and systematically understands financial needs of a participant, tracks progress, and (re)allocates funds to the best path. It adjusts the allocation between five allocation funds based on personal characteristics, ATBlueprint® calculations, and current market conditions. ATArchitect will automatically reallocate investments to the most appropriate fund when necessary.

ATBlueprint: Our clients and participants utilize the ATBlueprint® to aid them in retirement readiness. It is a powerful process that guides a participant in preparing for retirement. It draws a path to retirement by defining the relationship between current and future income needs, projecting a beneficiary's monthly benefits, estimating annual costs of long term-care insurance, suggesting ways to increase the retirement balance, using monthly returns in future progress projection, and cost of living adjustments based on residence, and offering relevant ways to improve outcomes.

Perspective Partners is passionate about bringing holistic financial wellness solutions to retirement plan advisors, sponsors and participants. In 2005, Perspective Partners pioneered analyzing outcomes rather than investments to drive plan success. We've helped hundreds of plan advisors to differentiate with industry-leading retirement readiness reports and software. Recognizing the convergence of health and wealth and the changing priorities of the C-suite, we launched NestUp Managed Deferrals® to improve retirement readiness and lower healthcare costs by giving participants holistic decision support and execution for 401(k) and HSA savings. Perspective Partners is a subsidiary of Manning & Napier Group, LLC.

IN BUSINESS SINCE : 2000

PRODUCT/SERVICE CATEGORY Software

PRODUCT/SERVICE DESCRIPTION

What if you could reduce costs and increase the value of your company's health and wealth benefits at the same time? NestUp® is an integrated, seamless and actionable financial wellness platform that connects wealth and health benefits to improve outcomes and save money. We accomplish this by unifying and personalizing health (HSA) and wealth (401(k)) deferrals through a process that engages, educates and executes employee benefits decisions. With healthcare expenses likely being the largest retirement expense, it makes sense to have a savings strategy that complements the 401(k). The HSA offers tax advantages over the 401(k) specifically for qualified medical expenses.

Used as either a standalone portal or integrated into a benefits enrollment system, NestUp analyzes employee census data and provides deferral recommendations. Employees can accept the recommendations provided or create their own deferral strategy. In addition to recommending deferral amounts, NestUp may also recommend deferring HSA dollars to an investment account for long-term growth opportunity. NestUp offers an HSA-Investment Only account through one of our partner HSA administrator firms. NestUp takes the guesswork out of determining a deferral strategy and streamlines administrative processes within HR benefits.

There are no sales, no lead-gen, no assets under management, no specific investment advice, no trying to get assets under management.

PRODUCT/SERVICE DESCRIPTION

Best Money Moves is a mobile-first financial wellness program that combines technology, information, tools and live money coaching to help employees measure their level of financial stress in 15 categories, and then sends relevant information and tools to help them reduce that stress. An ongoing engagement strategy keeps usage rates well above EAP rates.

Employees use the program's point-based rewards system, which assigns point values to every action possible: setting up income and expenses inside the budget tool, reading articles, measuring stress, etc. All of these items, plus the leaderboard, are seen on the Employee Dashboard.

Employers also get a dashboard. The Reports button provides a real-time, statistical look at usage: unique visitors; minutes online per visit; an overview of those who have measured stress; what categories of stress they're measuring; money coach sessions; and, a snapshot of the overall financial health of employees. No individual data can be accessed. In addition, HR can run its own contests, and have their own messaging portal to facilitate additional communication.

Best Money Moves sells nothing and is not a robo-investment platform because we believe that employees need unbiased information they can trust and they're looking to employers to provide financial wellness education.

• Our level 2 service involves sending US mail to each record asking for address confirmation, and sending the same mailer to any forwarding addresses received this search can take up to 45 days.

• Our level 3 search is added on top of the level 2 service for records that require the more robust manual electronic search typically around 10% of the records. The manual electronic search involves searching social media - Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, etc. for the participant. This is our most robust search producing best search results (roughly 95%), and can take up to 60 days.

• Our level 4 search involves sending certified mail to the 10% we can't find from level 2, is typically used only for terminating plans this approach can take up to 75 days.

PRODUCT/SERVICE DESCRIPTION

RPAG's Scorecard System™ is a proprietary, institutionally based investment scoring system that incorporates both quantitative and qualitative factors. The Scorecard score is based on 10 screens, which include style analysis, risk/return factors, peer group rankings and certain qualitative factors. The Scorecard System is built around pass/fail criteria, on a scale of 0 to 10, with 10 being the best. RPAG uses separate methodologies to assess active, passive and asset allocation strategies. Active and asset allocation strategies are evaluated over a five-year period, and passive strategies are evaluated over a three-year period. The RPAG score is calculated quarterly. The score is 80 percent quantitative and 20 percent qualitative. Combined, these factors are one way of measuring the relative performance, characteristics, behavior and overall appropriateness of a fund as a plan investment option.

NAPA’s Industry Lists

NAPA’s unique lists highlight four critical elements of the retirement industry: “Wingmen,” listing the DC industry’s top wholesalers, “Young Guns,” our list of the top plan advisors under 40, our Top DC Advisor Teams and NAPA’s Top Women Advisors.

One of the things that sets these lists apart from other published lists is that they are based on a nominating/voting/selection process that taps the knowledge of NAPA’s 10,000+ members. Look for more information about the upcoming editions of all four lists on the NAPA Net portal and in the NAPA Net Daily.

Where is the next generation of plan advisors coming from?

To answer that question, NAPA set out to find the top young advisors — the profession’s “Young Guns.” The result of was our list of the “Top 50 Plan Advisors Under 40,” first published in 2014.

You can find our lists from 2014 through 2018 online at www.napa-net.org, under the “Industry Lists” tab.

In what has long been a male-dominated profession, a growing number of women are today making significant contributions to this field. In 2015, the editorial team here committed to an acknowledgment of those contributions with the launch of the newest NAPA Net list, NAPA’s Top Women Advisors.

You can find our lists of Top Women Advisor All-Stars, Captains, and Rising Stars online at www.napa-net.org, under the “Industry Lists” tab.

Sure, we know it’s not just about the numbers – but the reality is that advisors are having a huge impact every single day, not only on the quality of retirement plan advice, but in building a more financially secure retirement for millions of Americans.

NAPA’s Top DC Advisor Teams acknowledges the advisor teams that are responsible for at least $100 million in defined contribution plan assets.

You can find our list of Top DC Advisor Teams online at www.napa-net.org, under the “Industry Lists” tab.

Only plan advisors know how important their DC wholesaler can be in building, managing and growing their practice. We call them “DC Wingmen” because if they are doing their job, they have your back.

And only advisors know which Wingmen are really good and truly add value.

That’s why NAPA set out to identify the top wholesalers who serve the DC market — the truly elite Wingmen. Our first annual Top DC Wholesalers list, published in March 2014, quickly became an industry staple.

You can find our lists of Top DC Wholesalers online at www.napa-net.org, under the “Industry Lists” tab.

FINANCIAL WELLNESS

Who’s Who in Financial Wellness Offerings

omewhere between a retirement focus on “outcomes” and a health benefit emphasis on “wellness,” the industry found its way to “financial wellness.” These days there seem to be as many definitions of financial wellness as there are financial wellness providers (or advisory firms touting those capabilities), but what all have in common is an acknowledgement that healthy finances tend to contribute to good physical health, and — certainly in later years — vice versa.

Not that financial wellness is a “slam dunk” proposition — if plan sponsors are increasingly intrigued by the ROI of these programs, they remain leery of the cost and time involved, and skeptical about the benefits. A recent study by Ernst & Young of 200 HR professionals found that those who have yet to offer a program focus on cost, which shows that justifying the price remains a stumbling block for some. Among those without a program, 59% say the top selection criteria is price, followed by ease (53%) and breadth (44%) of the program. However, once a program is in place, the focus becomes more about employee engagement across the breadth of the program (47%) and less about price (35%).

The survey also found that companies without a financial wellness program had a more limited vision of the potential benefits. For those respondents, 50% consider it a way to boost retirement savings, 38% see it as a means to help employees boost savings overall and 31% believe it could lead to greater retention. On the other hand, companies that offer financial wellness plans saw a direct correlation to employee well-being, retention and productivity, with 56% of respondents citing retention, 50% citing health and 45% citing productivity as the main benefits.

Regardless of where you — or your plan sponsor clients/prospects — stand in your evaluation of these programs, the information on the pages that follow is designed to provide you with a sense of the providers in that space, where they are located, their size and scope and, perhaps most importantly, how to connect with them.
