BPAS, a  leading national provider of retirement plans, benefit plans, fund administration, and collective investment trusts, announced today that it has acquired David G. Leonard A.S.A., LLC (DGL), headquartered in Ormond Beach, FL. All DGL employees will join the BPAS team.

DGL provides plan design, actuarial services, and administration for 300 small- to mid-sized retirement plans. The company goal has always been to provide the highest level of service to clients in a constantly changing environment.

Dave Leonard, DGL President, said, “We constantly review our business and the services we bring to clients. We see this business getting more complex every year. Our clients are asking for more services and consulting than ever before. Joining BPAS allows us to expand our capabilities while maintaining our long-standing client-focused approach.”

According to Paul Neveu, BPAS Chief Executive Officer, “At BPAS, we’ve been in the retirement plan space for 50 years.

We are thrilled to expand our business through this partnership.”
