Being a member of the Chamber means you are a part of a vibrant business community that works together and shares opportunities and successes.
The SCV Chambers new 401(k) program brings our business community together to create the ability for small and medium sized businesses to offer cost-effective 401(k) retirement plans for their employees with substantially fewer administrative responsibilities.
The SCV Chamber has partnered with Lincoln Financial Group to oversee our new Multiple Employer Aggregation Program (MEAP) retirement plan including the plan’s important administrative, recordkeeping and fiduciary services. Locally, LBW Insurance and Financial Services, will serve as the preferred local agent for the plan helping to get more businesses enrolled in the plan to help them reduce overhead expenses and meet new state requirements. The plan is open for all Chamber-member agents to participate.
Businesses seeking more information on the new SCV Chamber Member 401(k) Retirement Plan can attend our upcoming member workshop on December 8 at 1:00 PM. Registration can be found on the Chamber’s website, www.scvchamber.com.
