DOL Proposes New Fiduciary Guidance for Selection of Socially Responsible Plan Investments
Ice Miller LLP [Guidance Overview] July 17, 2020 "In its current version, this guidance is very likely to steer plan fiduciaries away from ESG-oriented investments.... [T]he proposed rule does not address the financial criteria that must be used to determine when investments are considered 'indistinguishable' for purposes of selecting an ESG as a 'tie-breaker.' ... Additionally, the proposed rule does not address a specific time period that should be considered when comparing the financial metrics of ESG and non-ESG options.... [P]lan fiduciaries should thoroughly document the decision-making process ... when selecting ESG-themed investment options." |
