The data printed here are taken from PLAN­ADVISER’s sister publication PLANSPONSOR’s 15th annual Recordkeeping Survey. The survey questionnaire was distributed to providers of full-service and unbundled recordkeeping for defined contribution plans, and PLANSPONSOR received 68 complete responses this year. The questionnaire, which asked for approximately 350 different data points, was available for providers to complete online between March and May. All data are as of December 31, 2012. The table here offers only a snapshot of selected adviser-related information from each provider, and the 58 providers listed are only those that work with financial advisers in any capacity regarding the sales and servicing of DC plan clients.
