This year’s ranking positions us firmly among the best-known brands in retirement services, further solidifies our position as one of the largest independent recordkeepers working through financial advisors and reflects the growth of both our qualified and non-qualified retirement business. Newport Group also ranked in the top 3 of most defined contribution plans added in 2017, top 5 in both 403(b) plans and participants and non-qualified plans and participants.

Source: Plansponsor, July 2018. The 2018 Plansponsor Recordkeeping Survey integrates date from Plansponsor 403(b), 457 and non-qualified deferred compensation (NQDC) buyer’s guides to provide a more complete summary of the defined contribution (DC) market. The results were aggregated from data submitted by 63 service providers that collectively oversee more than $7 trillion in DC assets and are estimated to account for more than 90% of the total defined contribution market. Each provider is ranked in three categories: total plans, total assets and total participants; other rankings/totals reflect only those organizations that reported the associated data. All data, including data reported this year, are as of December 31, 2017; all information from the survey was self-reported.
