It is quite common for a company profit sharing or 401(k) plan to allow the plan participants to direct their investment choices. By checking the box in the plan document to be 404(c) compliant, many plan trustees believe that alone absolves them of the investment outcomes of their plan participants. In fact, there is a lot more to 404(c) compliance than that.
