Trump-era investment-advice exemption to take effect as planned

Trump-era investment-advice exemption to take effect as planned Bloomberg A Department of Labor prohibited transaction exemption that permits investment-advice fiduciaries to receive compensation for more types of guidance, including advice to roll over assets from a retirement plan to an individual retirement account, will go into effect Feb. 16 as scheduled, the agency said Friday. The exemption was finalized in December under the Trump administration but needed 60 days to take effect. Upon taking office Jan. 20, the Biden administration had the ability to halt and review any rule-making effort that was not in effect, and the exemption had an uncertain fate. This exemption allows for important investor protections, including a stringent best interest standard of care for fiduciary recommendations of rollovers from ERISA-protected retirement accounts, said Ali Khawar, deputy assistant secretary of Labor for the Employee Benefits Security Administration, in a statement.
