Headquartered in Indianapolis, Indiana, Nyhart serves more than 2,400 clients in all 50 states from 9 strategically placed locations. With client assets that exceed $20 billion, the firm specializes in bringing a consultative approach to large, complex plans and is home to a talented employee population that features nearly 100 actuaries, employee benefit consultants, and administrators.

Along with its retirement and healthcare solutions, the firm also offers Votaire, a proprietary health and financial wellness platform that allows employers to provide employees with the tools to help them develop a plan for reaching their financial goals.

“Nyhart’s unique strengths complement our already broad service offerings at FuturePlan and immediately increase our capacity to serve larger, more complex plans,” states Jerry Bramlett, head of FuturePlan. “We’re pleased to welcome Lisa Hague and her management team along with Nyhart’s exceptional group of associates—their skills and expertise will further strengthen our competitive edge in the retirement and benefits industry.”

“At Nyhart, we consistently look to hire and invest in high-quality people in order to provide the best possible service throughout our lines of business,” says Lisa Hague, Nyhart’s chief executive officer. “As part of FuturePlan, we can access the resources of a larger organization to the benefit of our clients while still providing them with the personalized experience and creative solutions that they’ve come to expect from us.”

“Nyhart has an outstanding track record of success, client focus, and service quality over multiple decades,” notes Raghav Nandagopal, Ascensus’ executive vice president of corporate development and M&A. “It is a highly reputable and well-run company positioned for growth through the cultivation of strong industry relationships and the delivery of differentiated solutions to a diverse client base.”
