  • As a sponsor of a 401k plan (or other defined contribution plan), you have important responsibilities. The Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) holds you accountable for the initial selection of investment alternatives made available to plan participants, for monitoring the performance of those investments and — normally — for the allocation of investments to 401k retirement plan participant accounts.
