I have been utilizing PensionInspector for a couple of years. The website and the information one can retrieve is much easier, faster and adds much more depth to a plan than the DOL website. For one thing, you do not need the Administrator’s UserID to access the information.
With just a few clicks, you can get all the information you need to review a plan for takeover consideration. You can review plans for at least five years past 5500 history. If there appear to be any compliance issues with the plan, you can access that information right away, rather than a headache in the future.
I highly recommend the website.

I have utilized the Pension Inspector CPA Audit Assistant Tool and found it a timesaver and very helpful to reduce my exposure by:

  • Presenting a 5 year key plan performance analysis.
  • Providing prior years key reported plan failures.
  • Providing an Excel file of the prior year audit results
  • to reconcile current year 5500 audit results as required by the Department of Labor audit requirement.

Retirement

By David L. Wray

Every day I am asked my opinion on how the volatility of the stock market has affected the 401(k) retirement accounts and defined contribution plan participants. My usual answer is that most plan participants as they view retirement planning, are in it for the long haul, and that fluctuation in the marketplace is a normal part of equity investing. Downturns such as the one we have faced in 2000-2002 merely gives participants an opportunity to purchase stocks at lower prices.

Thus, most participants’ long-term retirement planning prospects are not affected by market downturns. Yet, there is a specific group of workers, as part of their retirement planning blueprint, who can and have been adversely affected by a market decline: people who have been counting on living off of retirement account distributions in a just a few years and who have been aggressively invested in equities. These people, planning for retirement, can see their retirement planning objectives unexpectedly decline in a marker downturn.

Need for transitional phase of retirement planning.
Workers who are five years from retirement need to implement a transition plan for their retirement plan assets. Individuals who have defined-contributionretirement account plan balances and/or IRAs should do the following five years prior to retirement in regard to their asset allocation:

  • Identify the asset allocation they would like to have at the beginning of their retirement.
  • If necessary, implement a transition plan to shift their asset allocation gradually from their current asset allocation to the asset allocation that they would like to have at retirement.

Obviously, not all individuals will need to rebalance prior to retirement. For example, individuals who do not plan on taking withdrawals initially at retirement are generally in a better position to assume higher market volatility risks than individuals who are counting on having that money to meet their immediate retirement expenses.

Conclusion
Employees, planning for retirement, need to develop a plan for how they will allocate their retire account asset allocation for retirement well before they actually leave the workforce. This advance planning will allow them, if necessary, to gradually reallocate their investments over a period long enough to avoid the short-term volatility risks that are a normal part of equity investing.
