DOL’ s Fiduciary Rule
SELFDIRECTED IRAS WHAT ' S NEW? KAAREN HALL
DOL’ s Fiduciary Rule
This year the Department of Labor announced its Fiduciary Rule. To say this rule has caused controversy is an understatement. There are six lawsuits filed against this legislation.
The fiduciary rule redefines who is now a fiduciary and further clarifies the difference between“ education” and“ advice.” It’ s important now for you to understand the relationship changes for your advisors, as the regulation impacts advice about a 401( k) and IRA rollover or distribution.
As providers of SelfDirected IRAs our industry is largely exempt from this ruling since we do not provide advice or recommend investments. We recommend the accountholder seek advice from a competent investment, tax or legal professionals before moving forward.
Again there is pending legislation so expect some changes. This new rule takes effect in April of 2017.
