Your recordkeeper is unable to show they’ve been profitable through their recordkeeping platform.

‍ 5 Signs You Chose the Wrong 401(k) Recordkeeper Last year’s average, as reported by the DOL, was $600,000 per plan -an increase of almost $150K in the past 4 years alone.įor a quick check on whether you have the right recordkeeper for your plan, look out for these signs that your 401(k) recordkeeper platform may have some serious cracks in it. When the government’s rules are not met, substantial fines can accrue. It’s important to note plan sponsors (that’s every employer!) will assume fiduciary responsibility. An estimated 88 individuals, including: plan officials, corporate officers, and service providers were criminally indicted for offenses related to their benefit plans, according to the DOL. Their role is to enforce ERISA rules by serving as watchdogs and issuing government fines (or worse) to offending employers.

If your company’s 401K plan hasn’t been audited by the government yet, you won’t have to wait long-the DOL brought on nearly 1000 new hires. And the government continues to aggressively audit plans to help plan sponsors keep their plan on track and protect 401(k) plans. Practically speaking, the same tasks the recordkeeper completes on your plan are the very ones that are highly regulated and structured by the Department of Labor and IRS.

While your recordkeeper works in the background to support your plan, the role of the recordkeeper is a critical one and supports many building blocks to your plan and gives you and your participants the freedom to access your money easily.Īs the plan sponsor, you should be confident in your recordkeeper partner and understand their responsibilities. It’s likely that your participants log into your recordkeeper’s website to monitor and choose their investments, and if you don’t have payroll integration your team will probably log into the recordkeeper’s administration portal to make employee election changes. They manage daily operations like processing enrollments, tracking and handling investment elections, contributions and payouts as well as producing plan statements for employees. The job of the recordkeeper revolves around key administrative duties, such as tracking who’s in the plan, what investments they own, and what money is going in or out. In the Notes folder, you will find your notes there with the name of the file starting with the first line of the note.The 401(k) recordkeeper is essentially the bookkeeper of the 401(k) plan. In the Calendar folder you will find all the files that relate to date (for example, if you write something for today, you will find it in the file “20161007.txt”). If you are trying the latest Beta, just look in your iCloud folder and you should see a NotePlan folder with “Calendar” and “Notes” folder inside.

If anyone want an overview of the application, Eduard made a quick tour here.Ībout how agnostic the files are ( they are just plain text files like TaskPaper, but with “.txt” as extension.

#NOTEPLAN ROADMAP MAC#

I could create a specific TaskPaper file for each day (maybe a script will help there), but NotePlan makes it very easy: just press Enter on the day you want to add tasks or notes… Also, the calendar visual representation make it easy to have an overview on your planning and the Send to Calendar action make it great to see your tasks directly on your standard calendar (on your Mac or other device if you synchronize it). So, I’ve been using TaskPaper for project related tasks and NotePlan for the tasks and notes that relate to specific dates. I’m really liking TaskPaper for the search and tags capabilities and think it makes it great to organize and manage tasks on specific projects. Eduard (NotePlan’s developper) is very friendly, so if anyone has any feature request, I’m sure he will appreciate your inputs !Ībout the software, I’ve been using it alongside TaskPaper. Actually, I’ve been testing/using it since some time and I made the French translation. Hey, I thought I would mention my use with NotePlan.
