David Levine will participate in the Southern Employee Benefits Conference Fall Fly-In on September 27, 2011 in Atlanta, GA. His panel will provide an updated on the 401(k) disclosure rulesand, more importantly, what plan sponsors and advisors can expect in the future. While the rules ¯ what must be disclosed and to whom and how information is gathered and disseminated ¯ are currently at the front of the minds of plan sponsors and advisors, it also is important to prepare for the next wave of DOL activity.
Plan sponsors are going to have to be prepared to defend their decisions and explain the fees that will now be clearly apparent, both to participants and to the DOL. The speakers will offer their insights regarding what we may see down the road in fee-related enforcement and litigation, and also will discuss potential approaches to proactively mitigate against these coming risks.
