FAQ

In general, retirement plans that are covered by ERISA are protected from creditors—and their lawsuits. A 401(k) is an ERISA-qualified plan, so it is likely protected if you get sued. There may be a few exceptions, such as charges brought by the federal government or if you allegedly wronged the plan.

Plans that fall under ERISA include defined benefits and defined contributions plans, 401 plans(k), 413b plans, EPSOPs, or profit-sharing plans. ERISA also covers private health plans such as health maintenance organizations (HMOs) and Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs).

While ERISA plans (and their plan fiduciaries) employ a variety of legal vehicles to invest the plan's assets, employee benefits practitioners, and even those who may not work with plan investments on a day-to-day basis, are well served by a basic understanding of the most common investment vehicles for ERISA plan ...

While ERISA does not require an investment policy statement, the Department of Labor has generally promoted it as being consistent with the fiduciary obligations set forth in ERISA.

Anyone who works for a private-sector organization which sponsors retirement benefits such as pension plan or a 401(k) plan (or 403(b) for non-profits) receives an ERISA-governed benefit that becomes vested; i.e., non-forfeitable so long as the employee works for the employer for a sufficient number of years.

All 403(b) plans are subject to Title I of ERISA unless an exemption applies.

Qualified plans include 401(k) plans, 403(b) plans, profit-sharing plans, and Keogh (HR-10) plans. Nonqualified plans include deferred-compensation plans, executive bonus plans, and split-dollar life insurance plans.

The easiest way to find out whether you are enrolled in a self-funded ERISA plan or whether you are enrolled directly in the state-regulated HMO or insurance company is to ask your employer.

ERISA requires a plan administrator to furnish copies of the summary plan description, Form 5500, bargaining agreement, trust agreement, contract, or other instruments under which the plan is established or operated, to a participant within 30 days after the participant's written request.
