Three reasons to choose Basic Capital over Slavic401k

Basic Capital is better for teams that want mega backdoor Roth support, a broad fund menu with a built-in brokerage window and live compliance testing on every payroll.

Give your team more room to save

Eligible plans can add after-tax contributions with automated Roth conversions, so employees can save beyond the regular deferral limit. Slavic401k does not permit after-tax contributions.

Go beyond the plan's fund menu

Offer 6,000+ fund options, plus a built-in brokerage window for employees who want individual stocks and ETFs. Slavic401k’s standard menu has about 30 no-load funds.

See compliance risks during the plan year

Basic Capital monitors ADP, ACP and top-heavy tests continuously and flags a failing trend when it appears. Slavic401k tests monthly and runs nondiscrimination testing once a year.
