DC Benchmarking Services
Service Providers and Plan Sponsors need to work together to determine fee reasonableness and to produce the best possible retirement outcomes for participants.
Fiduciary Decisions believes that certain aspects of benchmarking are “non-negotiable” as Plan Fiduciaries are required to ensure that they are “paying only reasonable plan expenses”. So, what do we think a responsible Fiduciary should focus on?

Use the Right Data

All of Fiduciary Benchmarks’ data is obtained directly from the source – the Recordkeepers, TPAs and Advisor/Consultants that know the plan best. The data is 90 days or less old when obtained, is reviewed for accuracy, and is comprehensive in that it includes fees, services, support and participant success measures.

Apply an Expert Method

Fiduciary Benchmarks’ proven method focuses on building apples-to-apples benchmark groups of similar plans by service provider, using high-quality data and providing a balanced assessment of the relationship between value and fees.

Consider the Best Information

Fiduciary Benchmarks reports are designed to be simple, transparent and practical. The reports provide concise information and actionable intelligence that support sensible decision making. The reports and the process used to review them can be part of a prudent ERISA required review of fee reasonableness.
With that said, we realize that Plan Fiduciaries also have different approaches as it relates to satisfying their obligations so we have developed a number of different services that adhere to our core principles while allowing for differences in scope and time.
