Governance processes enforce adherence to policies and procedures. On the investment side of ERISA, regular reviews and evaluations of investments and investment managers is nearly universal.
Plan administration presents as much risk as plan investments. Administrative noncompliance can result in sanctions. Ineffective administration can create needless employee relations issues. Thoughtful administrative governance to manage plan providers mitigates these risks.
Effective provider management is all about building trusted relationships with your partners and providers.
