It is essential for plan sponsors to understand their fiduciary duties in the context of our industry’s current landscape, including the potential for conflicts of interest, to achieve the best results for your plans and to anticipate concerns they may face in the future. Given the recent wave of litigation against ERISA defined contribution plan fiduciaries, lessons can be learned on how to scrutinize plan costs and provider services in order for their plans to remain competitive and attractive to their participants.
