Availability for participants is determined by recordkeeper partnerships

From a retirement plan participant perspective, it’s not about which managed account provider one might find interesting, but to which providers an individual participant has access, says Chris Bailey, director, retirement, at Cerulli Associates.
However, he notes that most of the major recordkeepers offer multiple managed account options, which is reflected in the data below from the 2024 PLANSPONSOR Recordkeeping Survey.
