Frequently asked questions

Who does the advisor engage with during the sales process?

During the sales process, ongoing administration, and more, you’ll be able to work with our dedicated Retirement Plan Consultants. They are our in-house retirement experts with an average tenure of 15-20 years of industry experience.

How do plans onboard with Ubiquity?

Once a plan is purchased, within 24 hours, the Plan Sponsor will receive a link to schedule an introductory call with one of our Client Onboarding Specialists. They will help facilitate plan setup, including funding the first plan contribution and going over the Plan Setup Overview dashboard, through three phone calls. Once the plan is funded, the Plan Sponsor will be introduced to our Client Success Team for ongoing servicing.

Do you accept conversion plans from other providers? If so, what do you require for plan acceptability review?

We would need to see a potential client’s Adoption Agreement of their plan with their current provider to see if they can convert to a Ubiquity 401(k). Depending on the criteria, we will discuss additional options.

How are advisory fees handled? Can you pay fee- and commission-based advisors?

Yes, we can pay fee- and commission-based advisors depending on the product and/or the custodian. Fees are paid out after quarter end based on balance, or (if it’s a Ubiquity product) we can pay out fees via invoice. 12b-1 fees can be paid out on the Ubiquity products who are held at Matrix only. We can pay out the fees via quarter end balance on Simply Retirement and JPM plans.

Is plan design a consultative process? What input as an advisor can I have?

You can decide how hands-on you want to be during the plan design process! If you want, you can be totally in charge of the process, providing input on tools or other responsibilities. Ubiquity can also jump in at any time and provide help at zero cost to your business.

What are assets held and what options are there? Is Ubiquity an open architecture platform?

Assets held and options include Schwab and Matrix with access to over 30K mutual funds and ETFs. You have the option to utilize turnkey fund lists or customize an investment lineup tailored to your clients’ needs. We offer a fully open architecture platform.
