New DOL Conflict of Interest Rule: What Employers Should Know
Episode Summary
The new DOL Conflict of Interest Rule, what is also being
referred to as the new DOL Fiduciary Rule, has introduced
changes that some are calling the most significant since the
introduction of ERISA over 40 years ago. While the rule will
have a phased effective date beginning in April 2017, there are
multiple items employers should begin exploring now. As usual,
Sam does a great job of extracting specific elements of the 1100
page rule that employers should be aware of and provides questions
to ask today along with specific next steps.
Guest Bio
Sam Henson, is a Vice President and Director of
Legislative & Regulatory Affairs for Lockton Retirement
Services. Sam also brings a unique perspective to our
discussion today as prior to joining Lockton, he spent almost 10
years with the U.S. Department of Labor’s Employee Benefits
Security Administration (EBSA), where he conducted more than 150
civil and criminal investigations of employee retirement and
benefits plans, service providers, and fiduciaries. He capped
off his career at the DOL as the 2011 recipient of the Secretary of
Labor’s Exceptional Achievement Award. Needless to say, we
are glad we have Sam on our side now and he is not out there
banging down the doors of employers any more!
