What Are 3(16) Fiduciary Services?

Updated: Mar 11, 2022

Let's start by defining a Fiduciary. A fiduciary is an entity or person responsible for overseeing the administration of the retirement plan. Every retirement plan must have at least one named fiduciary, and many times that person is the business owner. However, typically employers do not have the experience, knowledge, or time to properly manage the administrative work in conjunction with their daily responsibilities as business owners. To avoid issues like burnout and costly penalties, owners can choose an outside organization to serve as the delegated 3(16) plan administrator.


Outsourcing 3(16) Fiduciary Services is an effective option to help business owners mitigate potential fiduciary liability. It also allows them to turn their attention back to the daily needs of their business and spend less time completing administrative tasks. RPCSI now offers 3(16) Fiduciary services. By choosing RPCSI to complete your 3(16) Fiduciary duties, you will receive comprehensive services that help to alleviate the administrative burden felt by many Retirement Plan Sponsors.
