401(k) recordkeepers

A recordkeeper is the company that runs a plan day to day: it keeps each person's account, runs the website and call center, and sends statements. If you know which recordkeeper ran your old employer's plan, you know who to call. These are the providers named as recordkeeper on large employer plans' latest annual reports.
