Benefits Trust
The ACCE Benefits Trust was established to provide retirement and insurance benefit plans on behalf of the ACCE participants. The trustees are a group of five to nine ACCE member CEOs who are plan participants themselves. They hire leading experts and benefit attorneys to:
- Advise on investment options and custodians for the retirement plans
- Counsel on legal issues for benefit plan compliance
- Negotiate with insurance carriers
The trustees meet a minimum of four times per year to review plan implementation, updates on changes, and ideas for new participant offerings. The Trust takes on the fiduciary responsibility for ACCE retirement plans and represents the "group" in negotiating group insurance rates. Their loyalty is to every ACCE member employee participating in the many ACCE benefit plans.
