M3 is proud to announce that our Retirement Plan Services team has once again been recognized as a 2026 Top DC Advisor Team by the American Retirement Association’s National Association of Plan Advisors (NAPA). This national distinction highlights a select group of advisory teams across the country that demonstrate excellence in defined contribution (DC) plan strategy, fiduciary support, and client service.

This marks another year of recognition for M3, reinforcing our ongoing commitment to delivering thoughtful, compliant, and results‑driven retirement solutions for plan sponsors and participants alike.

About the NAPA Top DC Advisor Teams Recognition

The NAPA Top DC Advisor Teams list recognizes retirement plan advisory teams that consistently demonstrate a high level of expertise, professionalism, and impact in the defined contribution marketplace. Teams are evaluated based on a range of factors, including:

  • Depth of retirement plan experience
  • Commitment to fiduciary best practices
  • Team‑based service models
  • Contributions to advancing retirement outcomes for plan sponsors and participants

Earning this designation reflects the collective efforts of M3’s Retirement Plan Services professionals and their dedication to helping organizations navigate an increasingly complex retirement landscape.

A Team‑Based Approach to Retirement Plan Excellence

M3’s Retirement Plan Services practice is built around a collaborative, team‑based advisory model led by experienced professionals, including Grant Argall, C(k)P®, Senior Retirement Plan Consultant, Director of Retirement Plan Services, and Partner. Our advisors work closely with plan sponsors to deliver customized strategies that align with organizational goals, fiduciary responsibilities, and employee needs.

Rather than a one‑size‑fits‑all approach, M3 focuses on:

  • Supporting plan sponsors in meeting fiduciary obligations
  • Enhancing plan design and investment oversight
  • Delivering meaningful participant education and engagement
  • Leveraging data, benchmarking, and best practices to inform decision‑making

This strategic, consultative approach helps employers strengthen retirement readiness while navigating regulatory requirements and market change.

Recognition as a Top DC Advisor Team reflects M3’s commitment to continuously improving outcomes for both plan sponsors and plan participants. By combining technical expertise, thoughtful service delivery, and a deep understanding of employer objectives, our team helps organizations:

  • Improve plan governance and oversight
