The Importance of Plan Governance

A 401(k) or other qualified retirement plan is a necessity for many companies who wish to remain competitive and improve employee satisfaction and retirement readiness. Yet because of a business owner’s many other needs and tasks, managing and improving a plan is often pushed off. However, as the plan sponsor, their fiduciary responsibility demands authority and a high level of responsibility that can’t be neglected. This is where the help of a retirement plan consulting firm comes in, providing plan governance to consistently manage the retirement plan to keep it running efficiently and effectively.
