## Resource

Plan sponsors are eyeing collective investment trusts for big cost savings—potentially saving tens or hundreds of thousands—thanks to lower expense ratios. But moving to a CIT isn’t just about cutting fees; it demands serious due diligence to meet ERISA’s prudence standard. Experts look for at least three years of performance and $100M+ in assets to ensure stability. While CITs offer efficiency and flexibility, they lack mutual fund transparency, requiring more effort from plan sponsors. The payoff? Smarter, cheaper retirement asset management—worth the homework.
