“My Clients and I Are Extremely Happy with Shore Tompkins as Our TPA Partner”
“I had been looking for about three years for a TPA firm with defined-benefit experience when I met Neil Shore at a conference. And I’m so glad that I did: Shore Tompkins’ creativity, responsivess, and professionalism have helped us greatly strengthen some of our most valuable client relationships.
“With Shore Tompkins, we can easily show our business-owner clients how much a Cash Balance Plan would benefit them.
“Shore Tompkins not only designs the plan, but also handles annual administration and testing of it, freeing me to focus on administering the client’s 401k. So our clients become more loyal to us, we receive a new revenue stream from them, and our firm stands out as a provider of CBPs. I can’t imagine why any traditional TPA firm wouldn’t want those benefits.”
