ERIC Joins Other Trades in Push for Electronic Delivery

Last week, ERIC joined several other trade associations in urging the Department of Labor (DOL) to issue proposed regulations on electronic delivery  as directed by the President’s Executive Order on Strengthening Retirement Security in America. The EO instructs the DOL to review actions that would make retirement plan disclosures more understandable and useful, while also reducing the costs and burdens they impose on employers and other plan fiduciaries– including the use of electronic disclosure. While regulatory action was included in the latest Unified Agenda, the DOL has yet to take any action.

If you have any questions or concerns about this letter please do not hesitate to contact me.
