National Benefit Services, LLC (NBS) is pleased to announce the successful completion of our annual CEFEX audit, marking our 13th consecutive year of certification. This milestone reflects our ongoing commitment to integrity, accountability, and continuous improvement in the services we provide.
The CEFEX (Centre for Fiduciary Excellence) audit is an independent review that evaluates how well a firm aligns with industry best practices. For third-party administrators like NBS, it’s a meaningful way to demonstrate that we operate with transparency, ethical standards, and a strong focus on protecting our clients’ interests.
Each year, the audit gives us valuable feedback—highlighting what we’re doing well and where we can improve. We use these insights to strengthen our systems and ensure we’re delivering consistent, high-quality service.
This achievement is the result of teamwork across the organization. From leadership to support staff, every member of the NBS team plays a role in upholding the standards that earned us this certification. Their dedication helps us remain a trusted partner in retirement plan administration.
We’re grateful to our clients for their continued trust and support. As we move forward, we’ll keep working to deliver value and maintain the high standards that define our work.
