“RITA’s conferences are essential for anyone navigating changing legislation and regulations in the self-directed retirement plan sector. We send several of our staff members to the conferences each year to stay up-to-date on industry issues and guidelines. The insights they receive from the incredible speakers and engaging group discussions are invaluable to their individual career growth, and for the growth of our company as a whole.”

Executive Chairman, Inspira Financial

“The RITA conferences are unlike anything that I have attended during the three decades in the trust business. There are virtually no other gatherings where you can sit down with your peers and competitors to discuss truly significant common problems, with next steps resulting in both guidance and solutions. All trust and administrative professionals that have any interest in the Individual Retirement Account world should participate.”
