Caltech 401(k) Fee Investigation

Caltech Employees May Be Owed Money for 401(k) Fee Overcharges

Excessive fees in a large plan can drain tens of thousands from your retirement over a career. If you participated in Caltech’s 401(k), you may be entitled to recover what you lost — at no cost to you.

You may have a claim if…

You held a plan account at any time in roughly the last 6 years

You were never told the plan's fees were higher than comparable plans

You're a current employee— or you've already left Caltech

What may have gone wrong

Federal law (ERISA) makes the people who run a company 401(k) fiduciaries. They must act solely in employees’ interest and make sure the plan pays only reasonable fees for recordkeeping and investments.

When a large plan pays fees well above what comparable plans negotiate — or keeps expensive investment funds when cheaper, nearly identical options exist — participants lose money every single year. Because those losses compound over decades, the total cost to an employee group can reach millions of dollars.

If that happened in the Caltech plan, the people who allowed it may be responsible for repaying what employees lost.
