Excessive fees

Your plan pays materially more than peer plans of similar size for recordkeeping or investment management.

Bad investments

Core funds have trailed appropriate benchmarks for years and lower-cost alternatives were available.

Employer self-dealing

The menu is loaded with proprietary funds run by the plan's own recordkeeper or an affiliated company.

Practice Areas

When they don't, we hold them accountable.
