5. ROBS Risk Disclosure (Important)
Funding a business using retirement funds through a ROBS structure involves significant financial, regulatory, and operational risks.
By engaging our services, you acknowledge and understand the following:
No Guarantee of Business Success
Starting or acquiring a business carries inherent risk. You may lose some or all of your retirement savings invested in the business.
IRS & DOL Compliance Risk
ROBS arrangements are subject to oversight by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and the Department of Labor (DOL). Improper structuring or ongoing non-compliance may result in:
- Plan disqualification
- Tax penalties and liabilities
- Additional regulatory scrutiny or audits
Ongoing Compliance Obligations
ROBS is not a one-time transaction. It requires continuous compliance, including:
- Proper plan administration
- Annual filings (e.g., Form 5500)
- Fair market compensation practices
- Corporate governance adherence
Failure to maintain compliance may jeopardize the structure.
Prohibited Transactions Risk
Certain actions (e.g., improper use of funds, self-dealing, or failure to follow ERISA guidelines) may constitute prohibited transactions, triggering penalties.
Liquidity & Diversification Risk
Investing retirement funds into a single business reduces diversification and liquidity, increasing exposure to financial loss.
No Fiduciary Relationship
ROBS Advisory Group LLC does not act as a fiduciary unless explicitly agreed in writing. Final decisions remain solely the responsibility of the client.
