HR Hero Audio Conference on CD
Presented by Bill Sweetnam, Brigen Winters, and Chris Condelucci
September 13, 2006
Even though the live seminar on this topic has already taken place, you can still hear it! For your convenience, we've recorded it on CD, so you can listen when you have time or share it with colleagues in your organization.
In what's been widely hailed as the most sweeping change in benefits law since the passage of ERISA, the President signed the Pension Protection Act of 2006 into law on August 17, 2006.
The PPA will
have a dramatic impact on defined benefit plans and defined contribution plans, especially 401(k) plans, well into the future.
Now you can learn all about this new law and its affect on your retirement package when you participate in the live audio conference, Pension Reform Finally Arrives: What it Means for 401(k)s and Other Pension Plans.
In just 90 minutes, from the convenience of your office, you'll learn about the major changes to the pension laws, including:
- Dramatically revamped funding rules for defined benefit plans – including single-employer and multiemployer defined benefit plans – and changes to the PBGC insurance program.
- Prospective changes affecting cash balance and hybrid plan designs, including new rules for future conversions.
- Changes primarily affecting defined contribution plans, including automatic enrollment, default investments, faster vesting, and distributions and rollovers.
- EGTRRA permanence – this makes the 2001 changes relating to retirement programs, including increases in the contribution limits, permanent.
- "Enron-related" reforms affecting employer stock and investments in defined contribution plans, along with enhanced disclosure.
- The most significant changes in the ERISA fiduciary and prohibited transaction provisions since ERISA's enactment in 1974.
- Other changes affecting governmental and tax-exempt employer plans and church plans.
After years of wrangling, pension reform is finally here. And you can learn all about your new compliance obligations and what the changes mean for your organization when you take part in this lively event. You'll have plenty of opportunity to ask questions of our expert presenters.
