Plan Administrative BurdensRisk and liability associated with the plan administrator role are a burden, both personally and professionally

Plan sponsors don’t have the time or expertise to fulfill the many duties

Compliance and investment support from dedicated Relationship Managers (RM) at Cyborg-Advisors and TOUCHSTONE will ensure the retirement plan is compliant and operating as efficient as possible.

There’s No Safety In Sizeo Excessive fees is a common

refrain.o Unless fees are

Cyborg-Advisors 401(k)’s totally transparent fee structure makes Fiduciary oversight much easier for the Sponsor and plan fiduciaries.

Open ArchitectureIn the world of retirement plan recordkeeping, the word “open” can have different connotations depending on the service provider’s model.

TOUCHSTONE has no proprietary investments and has the ability to include any mutual fund or ETF that is open to trade through the NSCC and for which the plan can meet the minimum investment requirements.

This allows Cyborg-Advisor's automated 401(k) solution the ability to search thousands of potential investments and create a “best-in-class” investment menu, as a division of an Independent Registered Investment Advisor and a professional money management firm.

We at Cyborg-Advisors call that “pure” open architecture. It’s as open as you can get!
