Montgomery Retirement Plan Advisors

Montgomery Retirement Plan Advisors helps mid-size employers manage their retirement plans with confidence by providing expert, practical guidance to busy plan fiduciaries. We stand behind our work in the strongest possible way by becoming a fiduciary to your plan, sharing directly in important legal responsibilities under ERISA.

With decades of specialized experience, we have the credentials to deliver on our commitments. In 2009, Montgomery Retirement Plan Advisors became the first consulting firm on the west coast of Florida to have its fiduciary processes CEFEX certified by the Centre for Fiduciary Excellence as an advisor to defined contribution retirement plans for corporate, non-profit and governmental entities. In early 2010, Mike Montgomery was named Top Advisor in the United States in the $5-$15 million defined contribution plan category by 401k Wire, a leading industry news source.

We help you navigate the maze of regulations and implement fiduciary best practices. We understand that overseeing the retirement plan is only part of your job. You want the assurance that your plan is on the right track, but you're too busy to go solo on plan oversight.

We make your job easier. We’ll pay attention to the details and remind you of important responsibilities, everything from replacing poorly rated funds to updating the plan’s fidelity bond. At least once a year we will hold a comprehensive Plan Review with you, discussing your retirement plan from top to bottom and identifying specific corrective steps. We even prepare the meeting minutes afterward to minimize your workload.

We believe in “white glove” service. When you call or e-mail our office, you will receive real help from a Registered Investment Advisor Representative. When we recommend changes in investment funds, we pre-complete the change forms for your signature. If a participant notice is required, we do more than send you a generic sample. We’ll create the letter ready for you to print and send. Our team is empowered to assist you and is passionate about solving problems. We’ll make sure you receive a solid answer to the most complex questions. If we don’t know an answer, we know someone who does, and will make sure your issue is addressed quickly.

We are an independent firm with no obligation or alliance to any retirement plan provider. You pay our bills, and we are accountable to you, not to a product vendor or a larger corporate entity. We are your retirement plan advocate.

Our Managing Principal, W. Michael Montgomery, AIF®, CLU, CFS, TGPC has over 33 years of experience in the retirement plan field. He has earned the prestigious Accredited Investment Fiduciary® designation, awarded by the Center for Fiduciary Studies, and is Past President of the Florida West Coast Employee Benefits Council.
