Finding a custodian in a shrinking market

Article Abstract:

Plan sponsors have to consider several factors in choosing custodians. These factors include the custodian's commitment and stability, trust services and client servicing. Global custodial capabilities, adaptability, transparency, monitor and control and emerging markets are other factors that must be taken into account. Essentially, relationships between plan sponsors and custodians should be based on sponsors' sophistication and resources, the needs and benefits of custody and trust.

How to evaluate manager style and skill

Article Abstract:

Plan sponsors may create more successful investment programs by delineating the prominent investment characteristics that their investment managers consistently display in their assigned portfolios, thus creating a benchmark. The investment skills of the managers may then be evaluated by comparing their performance to the benchmark over a time period. Benchmarks may be selected for each manager retained to invest assets for a plan.

Finding my own style

Article Abstract:

An FBI agent instructor recounts his experiences at the training division of the FBI Academy in the 1980s. He believes that trainers can be influenced by colleagues' styles to improve their own instruction, but since all have different styles, skills and strengths, a trainer is highly successful when he finds his own style and perfects it.
