The Value of a Retirement Plan Advisor Relationship

  • With the many complexities and risks associated with administering a retirement plan, plan sponsors should consider the benefits of hiring an advisor and other service providers to help fulfill the mandatory duties.
  • An advisor can help administer an employer-sponsored retirement plan in multiple ways, including:
    • Plan Design: Determining key design provisions for the plan, including safe harbor provisions and selecting plan features, such as auto enrollment, auto escalation, or Roth 401(k) options.
    • Fiduciary Governance: Providing educational materials on the plan sponsor’s core fiduciary duties and industry best practices.
    • Investment Oversight: Drafting the investment policy statement, either as a co-fiduciary or discretionary investment manager, and assisting in the selection, monitoring and replacement of the plan’s investment lineup.
    • Recordkeeper Benchmarking: Performing periodic, independent evaluations of record keeper fees, services, and capabilities.
    • Financial Wellness: Delivering content, tools, and support to employees that contribute to higher retirement plan participation rates, investment fluency, and financial wellness.

Plan Sponsor Questions for Consideration

  1. How often are you monitoring your investment fund lineup? Do you have an investment policy statement?
  2. Have you benchmarked your current plan to ensure you are in line with ERISA requirements?
  3. What are you (and your advisor) doing to educate your employees around retirement readiness?
  4. Is your plan providing the retirement outcomes you want?
