The Compliance Testing System, developed in conjunction with our customers’ needs, handles the most complicated plan scenarios and provides a complete illustration and solution. The system is sophisticated, yet easy to use. No longer do administrators have to “go outside the system” to perform these difficult tests. This frees plan professionals and consultants to design the most complex and flexible plans for their clients knowing that they can cost effectively administer them year after year. That is why most of the top mutual fund families, investment firms and insurance companies have selected ASC.
The Compliance Testing System handles both small and large plans, combining speed with sophisticated results. It comes included with ASC’s DC/401(k) package and is also available as an independent system for use with any other recordkeeping system.
