"The ability to use the Pontera system to manage a 401(k) is game changing. It bridges the gap that currently exists between your client, their financial plan, and their 401(k) account."
Modern, connected retirement planning
Frequently asked questions
I already provide 401(k) guidance. How is Pontera different?
Advisors' ability to help manage workplace retirement accounts alongside the rest of a client’s portfolio has historically been limited. Pontera makes it possible for financial advisors to securely view and reallocate clients’ workplace retirement accounts—without rolling assets out of employer-sponsored plans. Keeping assets in-plan can preserve institutional pricing, plan benefits, and protections that are often lost through unnecessary rollovers to IRAs or brokerage accounts.
How does Pontera help me stay compliant?
Actions are logged and time-stamped with an un-editable rebalancing record that gives advisors the tools to meet rigorous documentation and best interest standards of DOL PTE 2020-02.
How does Pontera fit into my existing process?
Pontera integrates with many portfolio management and reporting tools, so advisors can monitor 401(k)s alongside other assets. This provides a seamless experience and helps you focus more on client needs.
What accounts can I manage with Pontera?
Advisors can manage many defined contribution plans with Pontera, including 401(k)s, 401(a)s, 403(b)s, 457s, TSPs, and some 529s.
