INDEPENDENT OVERSIGHT

An independent set of eyes on everyone who touches your plan.

Independent of every provider, including your advisor. In your engagement, we work for your committee and no one else.

Your advisor, recordkeeper, TPA and auditor each see their own piece. We bring their work together, check it and surface what your committee needs to know, fully on your side.

We don't replace any of your providers and we don't give investment or legal advice.

EXAMPLES

When committees bring us in.

You want an independent review of your advisor

Because we're independent of your advisor, we can run that review with no stake in the outcome.

Your recordkeeper is due for a market check

Run an RFP to compare your current provider against the market.

You're not sure your fees are competitive

See how your plan's fees compare with peer ranges, and document the committee's review.

Your provider reviews aren't on a schedule

Put a recurring review of every service provider on the calendar, and keep it there.

A provider or committee member is changing

Your history, fee data and decisions stay with the plan, not the provider. New members can see what was decided, what it was based on, and why.

Your process needs to stand up to scrutiny

Reviews, searches and decisions are kept in one record that belongs to the committee, whoever your providers are.

A service provider is being acquired or merging

Providers change between contracts. Your committee has to notice.

Your governance process feels thin or disorganized

We do the recurring work behind your committee's process, so the process is consistent and the record is complete.

OWNERSHIP

We document the process. You own the record.

Most of a plan's fiduciary history sits with its providers: in your advisor's reports, your recordkeeper's portal, someone's inbox. When a provider changes, much of it goes with them. Perseptiv keeps the record with the plan, so a change in providers or people doesn't mean starting over.
