PLANSPONSOR has extended to June 8 the deadline to participate in the 2022 Defined Contribution (DC) Recordkeeping Survey. The questionnaire is intended to be filled out by providers of U.S. DC recordkeeping services. Survey respondents will also have the opportunity to participate in our related sub-survey. This year we combined the 403(b), 457 Market, NQDC Market, and SEP/SIMPLE sub-surveys into one. Results for the DC Recordkeeping Survey will be published in the June/July 2022 issue of PLANSPONSOR magazine. The deadline for submissions is June 8, 2022; please submit one questionnaire per firm. Any questions about this survey or any of the institutional retirement surveys, please contact Kimberley Gonzalez-Quiles at Kimberley.Gonzalez-Quiles@issgovernance.com.
