In this newly created position, Morrison, based in the firm’s Greenwood Village, Colorado, headquarters, is responsible for sales of retirement plans with assets greater than $25 million to sponsors of 401(k), 401(a), 403(b) and non-governmental 457 retirement plans in Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Iowa, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, New Mexico, North and South Dakota, and Wyoming.
