New retirement regulation

The U.S. Department of Labor released new regulations on Tuesday expanding the scope of fiduciaries in relation to retirement accounts. With the peak of the baby-boom generation in or approaching retirement, rollovers of money from 401(k)s to IRAs are on the rise. Savers move close to $1 trillion each year out of their 401(k) employer-sponsored plans into IRAs and the new regulatory environment will ensure that investments are always in a person’s best interest.

As a fiduciary ourselves, the regulation is an extension of our business model across financial services. The ruling should better align financial outcomes, lower fees, and decrease lock up requirements – all of which we’re major advocates for. Putting investors first is the ethos of our business and we view the new regulation as a major step towards industry wide best practices.
