  • Establish a framework for structuring a retirement savings program for Plan participants by making available diversified investment options that support a range of long-term needs, goals and risk tolerances.

  • Provide Plan participants with investment options which, when prudently used, will diversify portfolio risks and better accommodate the range of risk/return preferences they may have.

  • Establish prudent procedures for monitoring and evaluating the performance of the investment options within the Plan.

  • Explain the investment process used to select the investment options and the asset allocation portfolios available in the Plan.

  • Identify the roles and responsibilities of the different parties involved in the oversight of Plan investment activities.
