More than 10% of assets are held in cash - possible menu-design or default-fund problem.
Plan appears closed to new enrollment or frozen - balance-holders far exceed active participants, or the plan reports active distributions with no inflows. Exclude from peer benchmarks.
Auditor signed off without reservation - the cleanest possible opinion.
