Customized Intelligence for Every Plan

Plans are unique. Our model recognizes this by generating customized scores for each fund within each plan. The same fund can score differently across plans based on participant behavior, plan size, and menu composition.

Fund-Level Scores
Evaluate each fund’s vulnerability within a specific plan, providing an objective first step in the evaluation process.

Plan-Level Scores
A single score based on the asset-weighted average of all fund scores in a plan. Prioritize plans with elevated aggregate risk for focused engagement or prospecting.

Trained on historical removal outcomes, it analyzes 9 factors for passive funds and 12 for active funds—considering both fund- and plan-specific dynamics. Updated monthly, the model is an efficient tool for targeted analysis.

Fund Scores: 1-10 Scale

1-3 (Low Risk)
Secure position, low replacement likelihood
4-6 (Moderate Risk)
Average standing, monitor for changes
7-10 (High Risk)
Vulnerable position, elevated replacement likelihood

Beyond Simple
Performance Screening
Validated against actual fund removal outcomes, the model is both reliable and actionable.
