401(k) & Retirement Plans in Utah

A retirement plan isn't just an employee benefit — it's a tax advantage for your business and a powerful recruiting tool. We help Utah businesses set up and manage retirement plans that work.

Retirement Plan Options

The right retirement plan depends on your business size, budget, and goals. Here are the most common options for Utah businesses:

01

Traditional 401(k)

Employee contributions with optional employer match. The most popular retirement plan for businesses with employees.

02

Safe Harbor 401(k)

Avoids complex compliance testing by requiring minimum employer contributions.

03

SIMPLE IRA

Easy-to-administer retirement plan for businesses with 100 or fewer employees.

04

SEP IRA

Employer-only contributions. Simple to set up and great for self-employed individuals and small businesses.

05

Roth 401(k)

After-tax contributions that grow and withdraw tax-free in retirement.

06

Profit-Sharing Plans

Discretionary employer contributions based on company profitability.

Who Should Offer a Retirement Plan?

Any business looking to attract talent, reduce tax liability, and help employees build financial security should offer a retirement plan.

  • Small businesses with 2–100 employees
  • Growing companies competing for talent
  • Business owners who want tax deductions
  • Self-employed professionals
  • Companies whose employees are asking about retirement benefits
  • Any business that wants to differentiate from competitors

Retirement Plans for Utah Businesses

Utah's SECURE Act 2.0 tax credits make retirement plans more affordable than ever for small businesses. New plans may qualify for up to $5,000/year in startup tax credits for the first three years. Additionally, employer matching contributions are tax-deductible as a business expense. With Utah's relatively young workforce, offering a retirement plan with employer match is one of the most effective recruiting and retention tools available. We partner with leading retirement plan providers to set up plans with low fees, easy administration, and strong investment options.

Common Questions

Setup costs range from $500–$2,000 depending on the provider. Ongoing administration costs are typically $50–$150/month plus per-participant fees. Tax credits may offset much of this cost.

With a traditional 401(k), matching is optional. Safe Harbor 401(k) plans require a minimum match. SIMPLE IRAs require either matching or non-elective contributions.

Employer contributions are tax-deductible. Small businesses may also qualify for up to $5,000/year in SECURE Act 2.0 startup tax credits.
