Previous report

On April 23, 2024, the DOL released the Retirement Security Rule defining who is an investment advice fiduciary for purposes of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”). The DOL also released final amendments to class prohibited transaction exemptions (PTEs) available to investment advice fiduciaries, including PTE 2020-02 and PTE 84-24.

Previous report

The effective date for the Retirement Security Rule and amendments to the PTEs is expected to be on or around September 23, 2024. There is a one (1) year transition rule applicable to certain conditions contained in the PTE amendments. The new definition of an investment advice fiduciary expands the definition of who the DOL considers a fiduciary under ERISA. Voya is continuing to study the effect the Retirement Security Rule and amendments may have on its Wealth Solutions business and operations but currently anticipates that such effects will not be significant. Voya’s current in-plan investment advisory services program, which is designed to comply with previous DOL guidance, remains unchanged.
