EBP2246. MEPS, PEPS, and MEWA

This session will consist of an overview of MEP, PEPs and MEWAs from the lens of Multiple Employer Plan service providers. We will discuss changes in the Multiple Employer Plan environment and common obstacles faced by service providers while building out PEP plans on their respective platforms. Our panel of experts will discuss recent guidance applicable to MEPs and PEPs and how this could potentially impact the audit process.

Learning Objectives:

• Evaluate how the Secure Act and PEP Plan rollouts will potentially impact the retirement plan marketplace.
• Interpret operational and compliance aspects that are specific to MEPs and PEPs that may impact your audit procedures.
• Assess with service providers how PEPs are currently operating to understand how to better bid and plan applicable audit procedures for these new plan types
