With the focus by the Department of Labor (DOL) on missing participants, I have to say it isn’t hard to find missing participants. While you could rely on the automatic rollover provider, the Internet has made searches easy with inexpensive Internet search companies.

I grew up in this retirement plan business before the use of these search engines and more reliance on the Internal Revenue Service letter forwarding program, which no longer exists. Finding missing participants may seem tedious, but Internet searches make it so much easier.
