Retirement and 401(k) Plan Types
Multiple Employer Plan (MEP)
A Multiple Employer Plan (MEP) is a single retirement plan – such as a
401(k) or pension plan – maintained by two or more employers. They may
be sponsored by trade groups, Professional Employer Organizations (PEOs)
or third-party plan sponsors, or co-sponsored by a group of employers.
Note: MEPs should not be confused with “multiemployer plans,” which are commonly seen among unionized companies.
Pooled Employer Plan (PEP)
A Pooled Employer Plan (PEP) is an MEP that is sponsored by a Pooled Plan
Provider, such as AutoMEP. Unrelated employers may participate in the plan, there is one 5500 filed for the plan as a whole and the Pooled Plan Provider is responsible for the audit. In a PEP, individual employers remain responsible for ensuring that their plan is functioning properly and for conducting nondiscrimination testing on their own employee group. But, the PEP assumes most fiduciary and administrative responsibilities, including responsibility for investment monitoring, coordination of annual audits, Form 5500 filings, trustee functions, and other administrative duties.
