Simplified Employee Pension Plan (SEP)

Simplified Employee Pension Plan

A Simplified Employee Pension Plan, or SEP, is an employer-sponsored retirement plan that acts just like a Traditional IRA. It's perfect for small business owners, as it is a simplified way to make tax-deductible contributions toward their employees' pension plans.

Details

  • A SEP plan benefits both the employer sponsoring the plan and the employees who share in the plan's contributions. 
  • No Fee
  • Interest Bearing
  • FDIC Insured (within guidelines)
  • Contributions may be tax deductible*
  • Maximum contribution is 25% of income or $61,000, whichever is less.

Employer Benefits

  • SEP plans are easy to administer retirement plans
  • Discretionary annual contributions that are tax deductible
  • A possible tax credit for startup cost associated with establishing a new SEP plan
  • Potentially more satisfied employees because of an increase in their retirement plan savings 

Employee Benefits 

  • No current taxable income as a result of an employer's contribution
  • Deferral of income tax on earnings in the IRA's
  • Control of the retirement assets
  • An increase in retirement savings
