Is now the time for your small business to launch a retirement plan?
Is it time for your small business to offer a retirement plan? The federal government is offering incentives for you to do so. The SECURE 2.0 Act, recently signed into law, enhances the small employer pension plan start-up cost tax credit. SECURE 2.0 makes the credit equal to the full amount of creditable plan start-up costs for employers with 50 or fewer employees, up to an annual cap. The previous 50% cost limit still applies to employers with 51 to 100 employees. Also, certain employer contributions for a plan’s first five years now may qualify for the credit, and the act fixes a technical glitch related to multiemployer plans. Contact us for more info.

Reinforce your cybersecurity defenses regularly
Unlike the lock to a physical door, which generally protects property for a long time, a business’s cybersecurity measures need to be regularly updated and reinforced. Most cyberattacks fall into two categories: ransomware and social engineering. In a ransomware attack, hackers infiltrate a company’s computer network, encrypt or freeze critical data, and hold that data hostage until their ransom demands are met. Meanwhile, social engineering attacks use manipulation and pressure to trick employees into giving up sensitive data or granting cyberthieves access to internal systems and bank accounts. Be sure to keep your cybersecurity policies, training methods and security measures up to date.
