KJohnson Posted October 3, 2000 Posted October 3, 2000 If a Plan uses a bank as a directed trustee or custodian, my read has always been that although the bank does not have to be bonded (presuming it meets the other requirements of the ERISA 412 regs) the person or persons who give "direction" regarding investments must be bonded. Does anyone have a different read?
Guest pdahlen Posted October 4, 2000 Posted October 4, 2000 Every fiduciary must be bonded. That is: anyone who has any control over the plan assets, handles funds or other property of the plan.

Guest pdahlen Posted October 4, 2000 Posted October 4, 2000 Sorry, didn't mean to mislead. I agree with KJohnson. Bank trustee does not require bonding but all others handling funds (not employed by the bank) do.
