Retirement Plan Consulting & Fiduciary Support

Guidance for employer-sponsored retirement plans.

Serving as a plan sponsor involves ongoing oversight and fiduciary responsibility. As plans evolve, organizations are often navigating changing regulations, growing participation, and decisions made by committee.

An initial discussion to understand your organization and retirement plan needs.

What Responsibility Means for Plan Sponsors

Employer-sponsored retirement plans are a core employee benefit and carry formal obligations for those who oversee them. Over time, plan sponsors may need to address:

  • Investment oversight for a diverse participant base
  • Ongoing evaluation of plan design, providers, and costs
  • Documentation and committee decision-making practices

Having an experienced advisor involved can support informed review, continuity, and thoughtful decision-making as circumstances change.
