Listen "FF5 #75 - McDonald v LabCorp Decision - Part 3"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of Friday Fiduciary Five, Eric Dyson talks about the McDonald v LabCorp lawsuit, focusing on part three and float compensation. He recaps previous episodes on record-keeping fees and investment share classes. The court found the plan's fee monitoring process sufficient. Float income, earned on stale checks, is a plan asset under ERISA, and fiduciaries must ensure it's managed in participants' best interests. Eric advises plan fiduciaries to inquire about float income from record keepers and to review old service agreements. In the LabCorp case, the court concluded that float income was disclosed and monitored appropriately. Eric emphasizes regular benchmarks and RFPs for service providers.Connect with Eric Dyson: Website: https://90northllc.com/Phone: 940-248-4800Email: [email protected] LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/401kguy/ The information contained herein is general in nature and is provided solely for educational and informational purposes.It is not intended to provide a specific recommendation of any type of product or service discussed in this presentation or to provide any warranties, financial advice, or legal advice.The specific facts and circumstances of all qualified plans can vary, and the information contained in this podcast may or may not apply to your individual circumstances or to your plan or client plan's specific circumstances.
