MIAMI--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan 20, 2026--

Crecer, an SEC Registered Investment Advisor, offers an online service that makes it easy for small business owners to help their employees save for retirement.

According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, National Compensation Survey from March 2025, only 40% of employees of small businesses (with fewer than 100 employees) have a retirement account. Much of this problem stems from the administrative burden and costs business owners face when offering employee retirement plans.

Crecer addresses this problem by offering a solution that is fast and straightforward to set up. Unlike traditional retirement plans, Crecer charges no fees to business owners who want to help their employees create retirement accounts. Powered by modern technology and artificial intelligence, Crecer’s platform allows payroll administrators to quickly configure employee retirement accounts with payroll contributions. For employees, the result is simplicity: investments are automatically managed by Crecer’s system, which matches each employee with a diversified portfolio aligned with their financial profile.

“Coming from a family of small business owners and employees, I’ve seen firsthand the lack of retirement planning in the small business community,” said Amir Tahsini, Co-founder and CEO of Crecer. “Our goal was to build a service that makes it extremely easy for small business employees to start saving for retirement.”

Crecer’s mission is to help people from all levels of society plan for retirement, with a focus on serving small businesses that have historically been constrained by complex and expensive retirement plan offerings. Crecer’s service is available in both English and Spanish.
