Document Retention Fiduciary File Map
Maintaining accurate records and properly documenting decision-making processes are the primary responsibilities of retirement plan fiduciaries.
This document retention file map, when combined with a proper plan committee structure, will help support fiduciary compliance and create an exam-ready fiduciary file covering three primary categories.
Plan Documents Should Be Retained...
- For at least six years unless they are used to support the provision or denial of benefits;
- Contracts between the plan and its service providers should be retained for the lifetime of the arrangement + six years;
- Fiduciaries should document the information considered and the basis for all fiduciary decisions; and
- An exam-ready fiduciary file can help to avoid or streamline DOL investigations or IRS audits.
