Editorial
SEC rules need measured response

Institutional investors should weigh in on the SEC's proposed rules for the shareholder proposal process — and the agency must listen.

Editorial
High hopes for consistency and guidance from Scalia

If there's one thing plan sponsors agree on, it's the importance of consistency, especially when it comes to regulating retirement plans.

Editorial
Financial wellness gets spot at the table

At the West Coast Defined Contribution conference, the biggest innovation in retirement plans wasn't about retirement at all.

Editorial
Pioneer laid to rest in an ever-more-crowded cemetery

When General Electric Co. froze its defined benefit pension plan earlier this month, a quiet pioneer bit the dust.

Editorial
Times change, and that's a good thing

The reaction to money manager Ken Fisher's crude remarks at a recent investment conference shows that times have changed for the better.

Editorial
Think hard before dumping China

The retirement industry must educate politicians to consider the possible effects of financial regulations on retirement plans.

Editorial
Keep politics out of public pension funds

Public pension funds are not a tool that politicians can use to signal their virtue. California politicians haven't learned that lesson.

Editorial
Financial literacy? Start it in school

Employers should not be required under ERISA to provide financial education to their employees as a recent academic paper suggests.

Editorial
Identify and eliminate racial biases

Asset owners need to shed racial biases because it is unjust to exclude a group of talented professionals from an opportunity for success.

Editorial
Arbitration not a slam-dunk decision

Retirement plan sponsors should think twice before adding mandatory arbitration clauses to their plan documents.
