McCready and Keene, Inc. is one of the nation’s largest independent actuarial and employee benefits consulting firms that does not sell financial products or provide investment advice. We specialize in designing, installing and administering customized retirement plans. Since 1933 we have established clients in over 35 states representing over 500,000 participants. Because we work strictly on a fee for service basis, with a completely open architectural environment, and without having to use proprietary funds, we become true advocates for the plan sponsor and plan participants. We are not motivated by sales quotas, but rather by client satisfaction.

For us, client satisfaction is measured by our ability to deliver:

• Services that truly meet the needs of a company and its employees
• A plan that provides meaningful retirement benefits
• Significant cost savings
• Exceptionally accurate record keeping
• Full compliance with state and federal regulations
• Easy and timely access to plan data
• Knowledgeable, helpful consulting on plan options
• A team approach to integrating your benefits packages

McCready and Keene is the retirement plan specialist. Unlike benefits consultants that offer only a limited number of plan types or retirement products, we offer virtually every type of retirement plan available, including Defined Benefit Pension Plans, Cash Balance Plans, Defined Contribution Plans, and Non-qualified Plans. And we customize plans to fit your company's needs. From cash balance plans to ESOPs and from traditional record keeping to the highly convenient daily accounting option, we make it easy for you to have the plan you want, with the features you want. McCready and Keene also offers FAS 106 and GASB 45 Reporting for post-retirement medical plans

McCready and Keene was established in 1933 as McCready Pension Engineers, an actuarial consulting firm specializing in Defined Benefit plans. In order to provide a wider range of services to its growing client base, in 1975 the firm merged with Charles R. Keene & Associates, thereby becoming one of the largest independent actuarial and benefits consulting firms in the U.S. Today, McCready and Keene's staff includes nearly 100 actuaries, attorneys, paralegals, compliance specialists, retirement plan consultants and technology experts who manage more than 800 plans for close to half a million participants. Our combined client assets total more than $19 billion.
