A reader notes, “the MEP topic at the NAPA 401(k) Summit sparked some interesting discussion among advisors during the peer session” – and wonders if advisors see their emergence as a threat to your business. Well, do you?
MEPs, or multiple employer plans – more specifically “open” MEPs – have long been touted as at least a partial solution to the coverage gap, as a means to cost-effectively serve the smaller plan market, and as a way to lower the barrier to plan adoption, among other things.
On the other hand, there’s little doubt that their emergence will have some impact – and potentially a negative one on certain business models.
This week, we’d like to know how you feel about MEPs, and their potential impact. You can weigh in at https://www.research.net/r/SFPF5DZ.
And yes, we’ll have it all wrapped up for you on Friday!
