Let’s ask Siri. Or Alexa. Or maybe we’ll Google “TPA.”

Oh, but if you’re an attorney, it means Tri Party Agreement … or is it Trade Practices Act? But what if you’re a dentist? Every dentist knows that TPA means Transpalatal Arch! And if you’re a pilot, it means Tampa International Airport!
Saving the best for last, if you’re the President of the United States, it means Trade Promotion Authority: a power reserved specifically for the President of the United States!

Most qualified retirement plans need a fidelity bond. This has been the rule for more than 40 years. Even so, it is not the kind of thing the typical plan sponsor spends a lot of time focusing on.
