Reader Poll: Have Provider Practices Hindered Your Fiduciary Duties?

In recent weeks, a couple of advisors have written to share experiences with provider charges that could create something of a fiduciary quandary.

One of those issues involved charging to replace or remove funds from a 401(k), which, of course, adds an additional cost consideration to the fiduciary’s decision to make fund menu changes, certainly if – as in this case – the charge was relatively significant.

This week, we’d like to know – and give you a chance to share your experience: Have you been confronted with restrictions – timing or pricing or something else – that hindered (or threatened to hinder) your acts as a plan advisor and/or plan fiduciary?  If so, what did you do, and how were you able to resolve the potential conflict?

You can reply to this week’s NAPA Net reader poll at https://www.research.net/r/CX3HJS3  (anonymously, of course) – and we’ll have it all wrapped up for you on Friday.
