Plan Sponsor Council of America Features Article by Adam Greetis on Outsourcing Investment Management

The Plan Sponsor Council of America's Insights magazine featured an article by Seyfarth partner Adam Greetis, “Outsourcing Your Investment Management: Pros and Cons for Plan Sponsors.” Published on December 22, the piece explores the benefits and tradeoffs of outsourcing investment management responsibilities.

Greetis provides a detailed comparison between shared and outsourced models for fiduciary arrangements and offers key questions plan sponsors should consider when evaluating their options.

"If you value control and have a strong committee, a Shared Model can work well. If you need to simplify governance, move faster, and shift more responsibility to an expert, the Outsourced Model can be a good fit—so long as you set clear expectations, monitor effectively, and understand that the ultimate oversight responsibility remains with the plan’s internal fiduciaries."
