As the fiduciary, retirement plan sponsors are responsible for compliance with IRS and DOL regulations, maintaining accurate employee data, complying with notification delivery deadlines, and prudently selecting service providers and investments.

Under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA), the DOL recognizes that plan sponsors might need to hire professionals—such as experts in retirement plan compliance, administrative tasks, and investments—to act on behalf of the plan. If they do, the expert may take on fiduciary responsibility as well. Among the various professionals who can support the plan sponsor, it’s the 3(16) fiduciary that can address the compliance and administrative burden.

Employers might not be aware that relief is available. This would be an opportunity to advise them on 3(16) Fiduciary Services. Join this complimentary webcast to learn more so you can be better prepared to help them. We’ll cover:
