Step 1: Evaluation
By conducting a needs analysis, we will offer guidance by identifying and evaluating:
-The history of your business and goals for your plan.
-Your retirement plan and objective
- The demographics and investment behavior of your employees
- We will benchmark your plan against other plans in the marketplace. So that you can see if you are paying competitive rates and maximizing value at the lowest cost.
- We will review your plan regularly to help you evaluate if your current provider is the best possible fit. There are a variety of factors to consider when evaluating the capabilities of providers, including recordkeeping, communications, investment flexibility, compliance, fees and services. Thus, it is important for your advisor to help you identify the provider that best suits your company's needs based on the above criteria.
Step 2: Investment Service:
Selecting the most appropriate range of investment options to meet your plan's specific needs is critical to maximizing efficiency and satisfaction for you and your participant. We will:
-Educate you and your participants on general investment concepts such as diversification, risk, asset allocation, and historical rates of return.
-Identify multiple investments within each asset class from the provider's fund universe that are consistent with your plan's investment policy statement.
-Help you ensure that the funds meet the requirements of Section 404(c) of ERISA.
Lastly, while selecting appropriate investments is critical to the success of your plan, monitoring each investment option is just as important. We will:
-Review periodic reports to help you monitor the plan's investment options
-Conduct searches to replace investment options that are no longer consistent with the plan's investment policy statement.
-Provide investment education and research to encourage sound decision-making.
While the ongoing maintenance of your plan is important, we understand that it is not your only responsibility. As your Financial Advisors, we can help you resolve issues that arise in connection with the day-to-day activity of your plan, help you demonstrate compliance with the applicable standards under ERISA through documentation, help your employees make informed decisions on the features of their plan, and educate them on basic retirement planning concepts.

About Danny Riley
Over the last two years working at Morgan Stanley as a Wealth Advisor Associate I have helped clients develop comprehensive financial plans. My role as a Financial Advisor with The Alexandria Group is to help families define their financial goals, plan tax-efficient strategies that are optimal for those goals, and help them to implement these strategies to meet the objectives we have set in place. I know over time my clients’ goals and situations may grow and change, and I want to be there to help guide them through these changes and help to implement new strategies to meet their new objectives.
In my spare time I like to travel for golf, hiking, and snowboarding.

2When Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC, its affiliates and Morgan Stanley Financial Advisors and Private Wealth Advisors (collectively, “Morgan Stanley”) provide “investment advice” regarding a retirement or welfare benefit plan account, an individual retirement account or a Coverdell education savings account (“Retirement Account”), Morgan Stanley is a “fiduciary” as those terms are defined under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), and/or the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”), as applicable. When Morgan Stanley provides investment education, takes orders on an unsolicited basis or otherwise does not provide “investment advice”, Morgan Stanley will not be considered a “fiduciary” under ERISA and/or the Code. For more information regarding Morgan Stanley’s role with respect to a Retirement Account, please visit www.morganstanley.com/disclosures/dol. Tax laws are complex and subject to change. Morgan Stanley does not provide tax or legal advice. Individuals are encouraged to consult their tax and legal advisors (a) before establishing a Retirement Account, and (b) regarding any potential tax, ERISA and related consequences of any investments or other transactions made with respect to a Retirement Account.

Morgan Stanley does not provide tax or legal advice. Individuals are encouraged to consult their tax and legal advisors (a) before establishing a Retirement Account, and (b) regarding any potential tax, ERISA and related consequences of any investments or other transactions made with respect to a Retirement Account. Individuals should always check with their tax or legal advisor before engaging in any transaction involving 529 Plans, Education Savings Accounts and other tax-advantaged investments.
4Fixed Income investing entails credit risks and interest rate risks. When interest rates rise, bond prices generally fall.
5Investors should consider many factors before deciding which 529 plan is appropriate. Some of these factors include: the Plan’s investment options and the historical investment performance of these options, the Plan’s flexibility and features, the reputation and expertise of the Plan’s investment manager, Plan contribution limits and the federal and state tax benefits associated with an investment in the Plan. Some states, for example, offer favorable tax treatment and other benefits to their residents only if they invest in the state’s own Qualified Tuition Program. Investors should determine their home state’s tax treatment of 529 plans when considering whether to choose an in-state or out-of-state plan. Investors should consult with their tax or legal advisor before investing in any 529 Plan or contact their state tax division for more information. Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC does not provide tax and/or legal advice. Investors should review a Program Disclosure Statement, which contains more information on investment options, risk factors, fees and expenses and possible tax consequences.
6Municipal bonds may not be appropriate for all investors. Income generated from an investment in a municipal bond is generally exempt from federal income taxes. Some income may be subject to state and local taxes and to the federal alternative minimum tax. Capital gains, if any, are subject to tax.
Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC (“Morgan Stanley”) and its Financial Advisors and Private Wealth Advisors do not provide any tax/legal advice. Consult your own tax/legal advisor before making any tax or legal-related investment decisions.
7An investment in an exchange-traded fund (ETF) involves risks similar to those of investing in a broadly based portfolio of equity securities traded on exchange in the relevant securities market, such as market fluctuations caused by such factors as economic and political developments, changes in interest rates and perceived trends in stock prices. The investment return and principal value of ETF investments will fluctuate, so that an investor’s ETF shares, if or when sold, may be worth more or less than the original cost.
Investors should carefully consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses of an exchange-traded fund (ETF) before investing. The prospectus contains this and other information about the ETF. To obtain a prospectus, contact your Financial Advisor or visit the ETF company’s website. Please read the prospectus carefully before investing.
