International Paper Company 401(k): best low-cost funds
International Paper Company Salaried Savings Plan · Plan #007 · Memphis, TN
Suggested simple Boglehead mix
The public data doesn't show enough index funds from this plan to suggest a full mix. A typical Boglehead approach: look in your menu for a US total market or S&P 500 index fund, an international index fund, and a US bond index fund, all with expense ratios under about 0.10%. Or use one low-cost target-date index fund. How the 3-fund portfolio works.

FAQ
What are the best low-cost funds in the International Paper Company 401(k)?

The plan reported about $5.0B in net assets and 19,924 participants with balances for plan year 2024, according to its DOL Form 5500 filing.
