I've been notified that my 401K target fund is being transitioned from Vanguard to a similar BlackRock target fund.

The funds seem to be aligned fairly well with slight variance in return over 10 years however the expense ratio is 2.5x higher resulting in a lower ending value.

I'm obviously going to do more of my own research but wondering if anyone here can think of any other valid financial downsides of my 401K target fund moving from Vanguard to BR?

There's speculation making the rounds here that BR might be at risk with regards to commercial real estate markets
Expense ratio 2.5x higher than Vanguard isn’t always significant. My Vanguard is .03% and something like .1% isn’t really huge. What numbers are you seeing for expense ratios?
