Description

 

“DOL Fiduciary Rule on Hold -- Myths, Facts, and Next Steps”
September 11, 2024
3:00 - 4:30pm ET

Speaker:
Jason Roberts, Esq.
Founder & CEO
Pension Resource Institute
Encinitas, CA

Jason is CEO of Pension Resource Institute and Retirement Law Group, in San Diego, CA.  Jason is one of the industry most respected expert voices for all pension and ERISA issues, as well as for navigating the complex interplay between tax, ERISA, and securities laws and regulations.
 

In late July, two federal courts in Texas stayed the effective date of the DOL’s Retirement Security Rule and related amendments to Prohibited Transaction Exemptions (“PTEs”).  The result is that the September 23rd deadline is delayed pending the outcome of the cases or a successful appeal by the DOL.  This means that the “status quo” is preserved and the definition of “investment advice” will continue to be governed by the 1975 regulation (a.k.a. the five-part test) and the legacy versions of PTE 2020-02, 84-24 and what the DOL refers to as the “mass amendments” remain intact.

However, as is often the case with agency regulations and litigation, there is more to the story.  To fully appreciate the rules that are currently on the books and the choices firms have when it comes to compliance, it requires one to understand the 1975 regulation and the impact of: i) the DOL’s expanded interpretation of the “regular basis” prong of the five-part test, which was set forth in the original PTE 20-02 and related FAQs; and ii) a Florida district court’s 2023 order partially vacating the expanded interpretation.  During this webinar, Jason will help bring clarity by unpacking the status quo and explaining the options firms have for complying until the current litigation is resolved.
