American Funds/Recordkeeper Direct 5500SF reporting

[Cathy from Chicago]

Called AFunds this morning to see where required information for question 8f is located since their annual plan expense report explicitly states info is not to be used for 5500 filings. Repeatedly was told there were no other reports, the annual summary could not be used and this was all detailed in the recordkeeper direct agreement client signs when starting the recordkeeper direct program. Question - anyone here get better and more proactive information that me from American Funds on how to answer 8f? Any advice given will definitely be appreciated. Thank you.

I see many have viewed my little query but I've gotten no replies - Does anyone know if any mutual fund companies are required to report fees/commissions, etc. to plan sponsors for the 5500SF reporting? Or - is question 8f just ignored if no report available? thanks..

I don't think that there is any 8f reporting for an AF RKD plan, at least where recordkeeping fees are waived. If there are direct fees charged, they would show up in the trust report.
