BISYS Launches Wealth Management Systems Mandatory Rollover Solution
Franklin Lakes, NJ (October 17, 2005)
- Wealth Management Systems Inc. ("WMSI") announced today that BISYS Retirement Services, one of the nation's largest independent retirement plan recordkeepers, has adopted WMSI's Automatic EGTRRA Rollover Solution to process mandatory rollovers for their retirement plan business clients who are not interested in offering a proprietary solution. Under the program, BISYS will provide WMSI with participant indicative data files and WMSI will automate IRA account openings with E*TRADE Securities LLC, the designated IRA provider, and provide a reconciled report of all account activity. Clients that are being serviced by a proprietary mandatory rollover solution will not be affected by this offering.
"WMSI offers a no-fee program solution for our clients that significantly streamlines the administrative and enrollment processes for BISYS," said Bob Guillocheau, President, BISYS Retirement Services. "The program is designed to address the fiduciary concerns of our plan sponsors while enabling them to reduce the plan administrative costs and burdens associated with servicing smaller account balances and locating former employees."
Leveraging the technology platform of WMSI, BISYS will batch process mandatory rollovers in a completely automated, paperless process. Additionally, WMSI and E*TRADE Securities LLC will process all new accounts within 24 hours of receiving a file, so participants' assets are reinvested as quickly as possible.
"We recognize that within the IRA marketplace it is increasingly important for our clients to enhance service offerings for their clients to address various rollover opportunities", said Tom Loch, President of WMSI. "BISYS has been using our Rollover Solutions Network® platform to service voluntary participant rollovers for more than a year. Expanding the offering to include mandatory rollovers enables BISYS to process all rollovers within a cost effective service configuration leaving no rollover behind."
