The nonqualified benefits arena is complex and requires knowledge of the most recent tax and legal issues, alternatives and accounting implications of both benefits and funding. It is also crucial that a company matches the nonqualified plan design, funding and securing choices to the firm’s goals and priorities. Therefore, before beginning the nonqualified plan design process, a company should choose a partner based on experience, expertise, and administrative capability.
The firm should have the ability to extend the plan design process into a flexible, customized client service package. Service should include:
Established procedures for handling plan transactions and changes
Documentation of the plan’s initial design (including the reasons for design decisions)
Continuous service and documentation of ongoing plan activity
Frequent updates to plan participants on their benefits and the tax and legal developments that affect them
Committed relationship with the client company’s management and the plan participants
