FAQs

Here are some common questions we receive about our services and solutions.

What is a SERP?

A SERP is a non-qualified supplemental retirement plan created to boost the retirement benefits of its participants. Unlike 401(k) and 457(b) plans, which are subject to strict contribution limits, SERPs (such as 457(f) or Split Dollar plans) offer flexibility with no restrictions on the amount that can be allocated to participants.
