  • New York, NY (1888PressRelease) October 19, 2011 - New York based RPG Consultants and San Rafael, CA based EQIS are pleased to announce the formation of a new alliance which enables retirement plan sponsors to take advantage of EQIS's innovative technology and world class portfolio management capabilities across 21 different asset classes, diversified domestically and internationally, with both strategic and tactical money managers. This new EQIS-RPG solution allows advisors access to managed ETF strategies and professionally managed investment models in defined benefit plans and in defined contribution plans, such as 401(k)s and profit sharing plans.

    EQIS and RPG individually service plans across the country as investment strategy provider and record keeper, respectively. The EQIS solution will integrate with RPG's unique platform to provide customized retirement plans; allowing for an array of ETF-based allocation models and professionally managed portfolio options. This will offer cost savings and transparency to plan sponsors and participants and give advisors an easy to explain tool with which clients can allocate their investments.

    Conventional plans require that the sponsor choose an investment portfolio appropriate for the "average" participant in the pooled account. The EQIS solution recognizes that not all participants have the same needs and that participant needs change over time.
    EQIS's innovative solution helps significantly reduce fiduciary risk by addressing three sources of risk with a single elegant solution: From the start, it provides each participant with his or her own investment assessment providing a portfolio that is in line with the risk tolerance of the participant and then allowing updates to participant goals and thus investment allocations on an ongoing basis.

    EQIS's 401(k) methodology and the technology created specifically to implement it are designed to help reduce the sponsor's risk by providing a customized investment solution for participants at a fair price. Advanced technology makes this risk mitigation solution generally cost effective and easy to implement.
