Fiduciary Liability Insurance is a popular vehicle for the financial protection of fiduciaries of employee benefit plans against legal liability arising out of their role as fiduciaries, including the cost of defending those claims that seek to establish such liability.

CONFIDENTIAL; NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION 2 Who is a Fiduciary?  Any person or entity who exercises discretionary authority with respect to the management of a plan or the disposition of it’s assets.  Any person or entity who has discretionary authority or responsibility with respect to a plan.

CONFIDENTIAL; NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION 5 Definition of Fiduciary Duties “Prudent Man rule” To run the plan solely in the interest of the plan participants and for the exclusive purpose of providing benefits to plan participants To diversify assets so as to minimize loss To minimize the expense of administrating the plan

© 2007 Alliant Insurance Services, Inc. All rights reserved. CONFIDENTIAL; NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION 6 Defined Contribution Plans  Defined Contribution plans are pension plans for which no set benefit is promised. Instead, the amount received at retirement is determined by how well the plan’s investments perform over time and how much is contributed to the plan  The fiduciaries have to provide information to the plan participants on a regular basis regarding each of the investments and/or any changes in the investments  There is no specific promised benefit, the employer is generally relieved of meeting specific earnings targets and funding levels.  The exposure from these plans is still great. Plan sponsors and fiduciaries have a duty to make prudent investment choices in these plans and continually monitor investment performance to defray the expenses associated with running the plans, to run the plans solely in the interest of the plan participants and to run the plans as a prudent expert would.  Typically 401K Plans

© 2007 Alliant Insurance Services, Inc. All rights reserved. CONFIDENTIAL; NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION 7 Defined Benefit Plans  Under a traditional Defined Benefit Plan, the sponsor guarantees the pension benefits will be paid at retirement. These benefits are typically based on a percentage of a participant’s last several years of employment, usually when income is at the highest level in the participant’s career. This type of plan favors older, long term employees.  Usually this plan is funded entirely by the sponsor organization, although occasionally employee contributions are required.  Defined Benefit Plans are expensive for the sponsor. In addition to having to fund the plan, the sponsor also must retain an independent actuary to calculate contribution amounts and pay premiums to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corp (PBGC), the governmental agency that oversees Defined Benefit Plans and guarantees pension payments in the event of the sponsor organization’s and/or the plan’s insolvency. In addition, the sponsor fully bares the investment risk of the plan.  For these reasons, many sponsor organizations are terminating these plans and replacing them with 401K plans, or converting the plans to cash balance arrangements.
