Trust is relative. How many individuals or companies do you trust to do the same?

TSP is managed by an independent board. The staff reporting to that board operate back office / accounting systems and the TSP web site. They also contract operation of the various funds to other firms. Over time they might change which firm operates which fund, but such changes are invisible to TSP participants.
Arguing for the sake of arguing. Most of TSP funds are contracted out to BlackRock to manage. Is that better?
OP here. You say this as if that's better. There's an article today in the WSJ about how Blackrock got duped by some fake invoices.
