EBSA - Final Rule - Amendment Relating to Reasonable Contract or Arrangement Under Section 408(b)(2)

This document revises the mailing address and web-based submission procedures for filing certain notices under the DOL Employee Benefits Security Administration's fiduciary-level fee disclosure regulation undersection 408(b)(2) of the ERISA. Responsible plan fiduciaries of employee pension benefit plans must file these notices with the Department to obtain relief from ERISA's prohibited transaction provisions that otherwise may apply when a covered service provider to the plan fails to disclose information in accordance with the regulation's requirements.

Dates: This amendment to the 408(b)(2) regulation is effective September 14, 2012, without further action or notice, unless significant adverse comment is received by August 15, 2012. If significant adverse comment is received, the Department will publish a timely withdrawal of this amendment in the Federal Register.
