AWARDS 2024 FINALISTS P LANSPONSOR's Plan Sponsor of the Year annual awards program recognizes retirement plan sponsors that lead the way in helping U.S. workers save for a secure, dignified retirement. The awards celebrate those plan sponsors for their commitment to participants' financial health and retirement success. Plan Sponsor of the Year nominations were made this past December and this January, and we announced the finalists on plansponsor.com/awards in March. Here, we give you a snapshot of each of those exceptional plan sponsors. We will name the winners on June 5 at the 2024 PLANSPONSOR National Conference, in Chicago. The number of finalists in each category is based on the number of entries in that category. Entrants are judged both against others in their group and according to optimal practices specific to the plan sponsor's industry. Given the number of entries we receive, there are plan sponsors that, while having excellent credentials, do not become finalists. We know those plan sponsors have valuable insights to share with their peers, so we plan to call on them as sources for future stories to spread the word about their efforts. This year, we created 10 award categories to allow for the most accurate comparisons across plan types and sizes: Nonprofit Defined Contribution <$100mm ; Nonprofit DC >$100mm; Government DC <$1b; Government DC >$1b; Corporate DC <$50mm; Corporate DC $50mm - $200mm; Corporate DC >$200mm - $500mm; Corporate DC >$500mm - $1b; Corporate DC >$1b; and Total Retirement Offering. -PS 26 PLANSPONSOR.COM May - June 2024http://www.plansponsor.com/awards http://www.PLANSPONSOR.COM
