Trusted Information for Plan Sponsors & Fiduciaries

We believe informed plan sponsors make stronger fiduciaries. Below are trusted organizations and educational resources providing valuable information on retirement planning, ERISA compliance, and employee benefits.

WHY WE SHARE THESE

Resources We Trust — and Use

Retirement plan administration sits at the intersection of ERISA, IRS regulations, and DOL guidance. Plan sponsors, fiduciaries, and HR professionals frequently need clear, authoritative answers — and the resources below are the ones our team turns to most often.

We've curated this list with practical use in mind: regulatory sources, industry research, fidelity bonding, and benefits research. None of these organizations are affiliated with Rimkus, Marciano & Associates — we link to them because they are useful.

Informed plan sponsors make stronger fiduciaries. We share these resources because clarity protects everyone — sponsors, advisors, and participants alike.
