DOL Offers Resources for Participants About Fees
March 18, 2013 (PLANSPONSOR.com) – The Department of Labor’s (DOL) Employee Benefits Security Administration (EBSA) has resources for participants to learn about plan fees.
Reported by Rebecca Moore
On its “Understanding Your Retirement Plan Fees” page, the agency links to webcasts, videos, FAQs and other presentations about retirement plan fees and fee disclosures.
One publication describes some of the key information participants receive in fee disclosures from plan sponsors and provides tips on using this information in evaluating investment choices in the plan.
