Know the people
Identify the sponsoring business, trustee, and participants from the executed documents. Each has a different role. Keep contact details current and use the correct plan information when opening accounts.
Know the documents
Locate the executed plan package and any later amendments. A draft is different from a signed document. An old version may help explain history, while current instructions should come from the applicable documents.
Create a working record
Keep account-opening records, funding confirmations, and transaction documents in separate folders. The person performing a task should record when it was completed and what supports that conclusion.
