How DCIO firms are evolving to fit the current market
AS DEFINED CONTRIBUTION (DC) plans have evolved, so have the tools and services
that investment managers offer plan advisers in the form of defined contribution investment-only
(DCIO) products.
" The landscape has definitely changed in terms of the opportunities, " says Toni Brown,
San Francisco-based senior vice president, retirement strategy, at Capital Group, home
of American Funds. " As a result, DCIO providers are offering services and tools that they
never offered before. " For example, target-date fund (TDF) evaluation tools have become
important, she says, to help advisers report to plan sponsor clients on the status of their
default investments. " And there's more focus now on: How do you measure success for
your plan? And what do you need to do for your plan to be successful? "
The current market and economic volatility have swelled plan adviser interest in T.
Rowe Price's value-added services, says Michael Doshier, senior defined contribution
adviser strategist in the company's retirement - U.S. intermediaries business, in Baltimore.
" The volume of the meetings we're having [when the field team is engaging a
value-add resource or expert] is up 62% over the past couple of months, " he said in
mid-May. " There are many people with anxiety out there, and advisers and sponsors
need help just like other people. "
Open Architecture and Distribution, in Flux
DCIOs' share of the defined contribution plan market has been increasing
gradually for years, reaching 51%-or $4.4 trillion in assets-by the
end of last year, says Chris Brown, founder and principal of
Sway Research LLC, a DCIO distribution research and
consulting company in Newton, New Hampshire.
