“The RITA Conferences are unlike any that I have attended during the three decades in the trust business. There are virtually no 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 (IRA) world should participate.
