Balancing Fiduciary Duty With ESG Demand


Balancing Fiduciary Duty With ESG Demand
As desire for sustainable investments increases, retirement plan sponsors are still cautious about offering ESG funds while regulatory guidance is stalled.
Reported by
Interest in environmental, social and governance (ESG) investing continues to increase, but how can defined contribution (DC) plan sponsors meet participants’ and their own interests while still abiding by their fiduciary duties under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA)?
That balance is so important that the Department of Labor (DOL) issued a strict proposal last year, ordering plan fiduciaries to avoid investing in ESG funds that may offer a lower return or increased risk compared to other, non-ESG funds. The proposal later was the target of intense scrutiny, with many arguing that ESG considerations are financial considerations.

Newly issued guidance from the Department of Labor offers retirement plan fiduciaries a list of best practices for locating missing participants and insight into how it approaches investigations on the matter, but left stakeholders wanting more and expressing concerns about the process.
It s nice that the department released a list of things that they ve identified as best practices, but it s frustrating that they haven t linked it to the statute of ERISA, it s frustrating that it comes after seven years of investigations, and it s frustrating that even after all of this they couldn t put together a road map that says, We understand that not everybody is going to be found, but we don t want plan fiduciaries spinning their wheels for days and hours trying to figure out what to do, said Kevin Walsh, a Washington-based principal at Groom Law Group. ....
