Plan Fees and Costs

What is fee benchmarking and why does it matter?

Fee benchmarking is the process of comparing your plan's costs and services against comparable plans in the market. It matters because fiduciaries are responsible for ensuring the plan pays only reasonable fees, and a documented benchmarking exercise is one way to show the question was evaluated. Benchmarking can also surface services you may be paying for but not using.
