Need TPA info.

[chris]

I know there's an ad section on Benefitslink regarding retirement plan administration services and I know the message boards are not for the purpose of advertising; however, I am looking for a retirement plan administration firm in NC and the only NC advertiser in the ad section has had its advertisement cancelled. Otherwise, I would not be posting this. I have a client with a plain vanilla profit sharing plan and a target benefit plan with some problems that are being cleaned up. Current TPA proposes to drop services within the next week. Again I apologize for the nature of the post. Any suggestions? Thanks for any help.

Plansponsor.com has a section for surveys. They did one recently on TPA's. You could start there.

If you have a copy, the ASPA yearbook will list members by state

Tom,

Would that or something comparable be available on-line?

Thanks,

Chris

You actually can do a job search by location here in Benefitslink. Make your location a city in North Carolina. If they are hiring an administrator, they do administration.

A previous business associate of mine moved to North Carolina to work for W.E. Stanley (in Greensboro? or Greenville?). I don't know anything about them except they are owned by BB&T and they do 401(k) recordkeeping. I have no idea if they are good, bad or indifferent but they are in North Carolina.

Try this link. Scroll down on the left hand side and there is a National TPA directory:

Thanks for the link.

There is another directory on http://www.401kwire.com/

although you have to be a member. Hope you get what you are looking for!
