401K Asset Based Fee
Posted on 9/14/18 at 9:28 pm

Is 1.02% annually normal? It seems terribly high to me, but I haven’t looked at a ton of 401K plans. Average expense ratios are fairly low .10-.60% or so.

For a small plan yes. That fee should drop the larger the plan grows.

102 basis points is on the higher end. Definitely not the highest but you can find better, IMO.

If the plan is under 1 million that fee is not that bad or if it’s under about 2 million and participants get fiduciary advice (like from an RIA) it’s still not to bad. Any plan balances higher than that I would say it’s too high. If the plan is over 5 million it’s a total rip off.

Most of the responses above are accurate, but I would add one other qualifier -
If the average balance per participant is pretty low, even if you have a decent sized plan the fees can still be decently high. That usually the case in a high turnover, low income type setting ( a restaurant group, etc).
