In discrete, stand-alone chapters, ERISA's complex fiduciary rules are carefully explained, summarized, and analyzed. The treatise examines the intricacies of ERISA fiduciary law, lays out in an easy-to-read format the multitude of regulatory requirements imposed by ERISA, explains the relevance of the most significant prohibited transaction exemptions -- both individual and class -- and describes the many complex rules governing ESOPs.
The 2009 Cumulative Supplement to ERISA Fiduciary Law, Second Edition reviews and analyzes recent developments in ERISA fiduciary law in the areas of delegation of fiduciary responsibility, ESOP fiduciaries and valuation issues, and trustees' responsibility for collecting delinquent contributions. The new Supplement highlights two recent Supreme Court decisions, Sereboff and LaRue, affecting, respectively, the scope of equitable relief available under ERISA and standing to pursue fiduciary claims in the context of defined contribution plans. The chapter addressing individual prohibited transaction exemptions includes a new section on underwriter exemptions, while the chapter on class exemptions from prohibited transactions describes the relationship between class exemptions introduced by the Pension Protection Act and preexisting class exemptions.
Another publisher created this product. Why should I buy it from the ABA?
We want the ABA Web store to carry any title that is useful to practicing lawyers and judges. So in addition to the hundreds of products published by the ABA itself, the Web store now offers hundreds of titles from other publishers, including BNA, Oxford University Press, Harvard Business School Press, Wiley, Merriam-Webster, and many others.
The ABA has entered into a distribution arrangement with these other publishers, and receives a small discount on the list price of each book it resells. When you buy these products from the ABA rather than direct from the publisher or from another online retailer, you directly support the many programs and initiatives of the ABA.
