Session 3 – IRS Updates
Nothing dredges up a plan sponsor’s anxiety quite as much as a Department of Labor (DOL) investigation or an Internal Revenue Service (IRS) audits. This session will look at recent enforcement trends and help you understand the process, know what to expect, consider recent issues, and provide proactive tips to avoid pitfalls (perhaps even avoid the audit!).

4:00 – 4:50 p.m. ET
Session 4 – PBGC Plan Design Strategies
Have you noticed that your clients are paying higher PBGC premiums, even though their plans are well-funded on a termination basis? Have you wondered how to achieve or avoid PBGC coverage? If you are still reading, then this session is for you. Find out about PBGC considerations during the plan design phase and how you can use the coverage rules to optimize your plan design, and also to keep those rising premiums manageable.
THURSDAY – JANUARY 26
1:00 – 1:50 p.m. ET
Session 5 – Compensation: Considerations and Conundrums
Do you know compensation? Do you really know compensation? This session will examine the various compensation definitions and how we can use them strategically under different scenarios. It will also cover pitfalls and conundrums that can spoil otherwise simple administration.
Kevin Donovan, Managing Member, Pinnacle Plan Design, LLC
2:00 – 2:50 p.m. ET
Session 6 – RMDs
Business owners adopt retirement plans to get tax deductions and accumulate pre-tax savings. In general, they do not want to take distributions. Help them by becoming an RMD pro!
