Self Directed Plan Options Supported When Range and Mix is appropriate

In recent years, it has become increasingly common for participants to sue employers or financial matters for failing to offer appropriate investment options to participants.  In the recent case of Renfro v. Unisys Corporation, the Court ruled that there was no breach of fiduciary duty to participants where the mix and range of investment options available to participants are reasonable. An appropriate range of investment options includes varying risk profiles, investment strategies and consideration to fees.
