(Group-Internet Based)

Fiduciary Implications of Stock Drop Lawsuits in 401(k)s and ESOPs

September 16, 2010 (9:30 am Pacific)

No time or budget to travel to a seminar? NCEO's Webinars allow you to attend a conference from your desktop! Our live Webinars are PowerPoint presentations broadcast live over the Internet and accompanied by a telephone conference call. The Webinars provide the same information as a live seminar. View the seminar slides on your computer while listening to presenters live, via conference call. Complete login information will be provided upon registration.

About This Meeting

Over 75 cases have been decided or are in process concerning employee allegations that fiduciaries acted improperly with respect to employer stock in retirement plans. The cases have provided important insights into how to manage plans to avoid litigation. This webinar will discuss what the courts have said so far about who is a fiduciary, who is eligible to sue, when fiduciaries should sell the company stock or not offer it as an investment choice, what kinds of disclosure should be provided, and other critical matters.
