Service providers: Not separately published in PRB filings or on the fund's public materials. TLFFRA boards typically retain an independent actuary, a bank custodian, an investment consultant, and an external auditor. Service-provider engagements are local-board records and typically become public through board minutes (available by request from the plan administrator) or in the audited financial statements filed with the PRB. The fund's website (linked above) often lists current providers under a "Service Providers" or "Board" tab.

Expense ratio note: The "Total Expenses (% of Assets)" line is the PRB's published total operating expenses (administrative + investment-related) as a percentage of net assets, sourced from each plan's annual financial report. Per the PRB's own disclaimer: "Due to inconsistencies in reporting of investment expenses, this data may not be an entirely accurate depiction of true investment-related expenses paid." Lower is generally better but cohort context matters. Smaller funds carry higher fixed administrative costs. The 42-fund average is 0.708% (70.8 bps); median is 0.675% (67.5 bps).
