Summary

Abstract

In light of the growing importance of defined contribution retirement plans such as 401(k) plans, the developments in two recent lawsuits — LaRue v. DeWolff and Hecker v. Deere — may well induce others to file suits against 401(k) service providers. The cases affect 401(k) service providers that bundle investment management, record keeping, and administration. This TowerGroup ViewPoint gives a brief overview of the two cases, discusses their broad implications, and summarizes some best practices for service providers to manage the risks associated with plan administration and fee arrangements.
