Senior Counsel George Gerstein was quoted in an article in Pensions & Investments titled, “DOL on the clock to deliver framework for alternatives in 401(k) plans.” The article discussed necessary formal regulation and guidance from the DOL and EBSA to carry out President Trump’s executive order to expand access to 401(k) Assets. George noted, in part, that the DOL could quickly withdraw certain negative guidance and that, given the back-and-forth guidance under prior administrations, “EBSA could also provide a safe harbor for plans incorporating private markets, but such a move would likely go through a notice-and-comment rulemaking before being enacted.”
