So what is a Cash Balance Plan? Simply put, a cash balance plan combines the flexibility, portability and simplicity of a profit sharing/401(k) plan with the high contribution limits of a traditional defined benefit plan to create a unique hybrid that is very appealing to high income earners in the small business plan space. A cash balance plan can provide your clients with an opportunity to substantially increase the amount set aside for retirement while receiving a large tax benefit, protecting their assets from lawsuits or bankruptcy, attracting and retaining key employees and providing another avenue for family business succession planning.
