The EBS Retirement Income Builder

Funded by Split Dollar Life Insurance

We designed the EBS Income Retirement Builder specifically with our nonprofit and private company clients in mind.  

Privately held companies and nonprofit organizations face a unique set of barriers to executive compensation planning that our public company clients avoid.  So how do we leverage the playing field for our private company and nonprofit clients looking to retain their key employees?  We implement a tax advantaged and flexible alternative for their key people – The EBS Income Retirement Builder.

A plan built with one thing in mind – creating a flexible and tax-advantaged planning alternative for our nonprofit and private organization clients.
