Fiduciary Due Diligence
As a Retirement Plan Sponsor, you are held to high standards in maintaining a program that will remain on solid footing.
Fiduciary:
Anyone who exercises discretionary authority, or control, over the management of your plan. Fiduciaries have a duty of loyalty to the plan and are responsible for operating and managing the plan for the exclusive benefit of participants and their beneficiaries.
A Fiduciary must:
  • Select and monitor plan investments
  • Choose and monitor those who service the plan
  • Ensure that plan document provisions are adhered to by those operating the plan
  • Evaluate participant education and communication
  • Ensure that the plan meets the minimum standards of the Internal Revenue Code and ERISA
  • Ensure that plan expenses are reasonable
For help in understanding and executing your fiduciary responsibilities, contact your Regional Gardner & White Representative to arrange for a meeting…or ask for a free copy of our Fiduciary Responsibility Guide.
