- Fiduciary liability exists when responsibilities are left unfulfilled.
- Department of Labor studies show:
- Plan fiduciaries receive little or no training.
- They believe they can transfer their responsibility to a third party.
- They fail to understand personal liability implications.
- Breach of fiduciary responsibility – leading cause of arbitration, civil and regulatory lawsuits.
