BETHESDA, Md., Sept. 27, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- MV Financial -- a national, middle market-focused asset management firm servicing retirement plans and high net worth families -- is pleased to announce the appointment of Chris Schaefer as Head of the Retirement Plan Practice Group, its growing retirement plan practice. Mr. Schaefer, a 14-year veteran of the firm, is taking on this newly-created position to meet MV Financial's long-standing and growing commitment to retirement plans, for both fiduciaries and beneficiaries.
Mr. Schaefer's appointment comes as MV Financial expands its retirement practice in response to increased demand from middle-market clients seeking to broaden their employee benefit programs while also minimizing expenses and improving retirement outcomes for their employees.
"Chris has a strong track record in helping retirement plan sponsors and participants achieve optimal outcomes," MV Financial's founder and chief executive officer Masood Vojdani said. "We are pleased to have him lead the retirement practice as we continue to expand regionally and nationally."
The retirement practice that Mr. Schaefer will oversee serves 401(k) plans as well as 403(b), 457(b), and defined benefit plans in the private and nonprofit sectors. He will work closely with the firm's investment management, portfolio operations and client services divisions to provide clients with tailored retirement planning and investment guidance. Notably, the practice serves government contractors, professional services firms, nonprofit organizations and trade associations and has a strong Mid-Atlantic and Washington, D.C. metropolitan area focus.
"As market volatility persists, employers are examining their retirement plans' investment options more carefully than ever," said Mr. Schaefer. "Our retirement practice helps these companies reduce costs, streamline their investment menus and minimize fiduciary risk."
As an ERISA full 3(38) fiduciary, the firm assumes fiduciary responsibility with plan sponsors and provides conflict-free investment selection, plan design review with recommendations, thorough investment due diligence with documentation, and individualized education and support for employees.
