Knocking points off
- No IQPA named; plan is in the 80-120 transition zone — may be filing as small.
- Only 37% as many balances as active participants — suggests many active employees aren't deferring.
Helping the score
- Concentration not scored — Schedule of Assets PDF not yet parsed for this plan.
- No Schedule C compensation disclosed — likely a small plan or unbundled.
