MRIC is a consortium. Our volunteer Board works on behalf of all our 200+ member schools. By participating in the MRIC, member school systems can spend less time evaluating third-party administrators, investment firms, and financial products and more time educating.

Strategic Partners

Throughout the history of MRIC, the MRIC Board has partnered with companies who bring added value to the participating districts, through their industry experience or legal expertise. These strategic partners include:

Foresight Capital Management Advisors, Inc.
Miller Johnson

Core Vendors

In selecting investment providers for participants, the MRIC Board focused on three criteria; [1] Performance [2] Price and [3] Service. After a careful and detailed vetting process, six core vendors were selected, and their services were offered in all districts.

The six core vendors providing investment services to MRIC members are:

MEA Financial Services/Paradigm Equities
Midwest Capital Advisors
PlanMember/Williams & Co.
Lincoln Investment/M3 Investment Services
AIG Retirement Services (formerly VALIC)
GLP & Associates

Contact information for MRIC’s core partners is available here.

Wildcard Vendors

Because many districts had existing relationships with other vendors, districts have the opportunity to include “wildcard” vendors in their list of available service providers. The number of wildcard vendors varies by district, and wildcard vendors are not vetted by MRIC.
