2014 Survey of DC Plan Consulting Support and Trends (PDF)
PIMCO Apr. 15, 2014 "Fastest-growing DC areas reported by consultants include: Total plan cost/fee studies; DC investment design; Investment default asset allocation creation (e.g., target dates, balanced fund); DC recordkeeping searches; [and] Manager selection and monitoring... Consultants believe that the perceived mitigation of fiduciary risk (72%) and the ability to hand over reins on investments (66%) are the leading drivers of growth for outsourced CIO or discretionary oversight of assets.... The majority of consultants (59%) indicate that some or most of their plan sponsor clients prefer to retain retiree assets. Over a fifth (21%) indicate that some or a majority actively seek to retain these assets. Only two firms (4%) reported that the majority of their clients prefer that retirees move out of their plan." |
