Did Empower's Cross-Selling Cross the Line? Why Fiduciaries Should Monitor Recordkeeper Marketing
Cohen & Buckmann, P.C.
Sept. 2, 2025 "While the GAO and the SEC have expressed concern about cross-selling to retirement plan participants ... there is no body of case law specifically holding that plan data is a plan asset or that cross-selling violates ERISA.

Faced with these challenges, plaintiffs have cast a wide net in their attempt to recover from Empower." [Williams‑Linzey v. Empower Advisory Group, LLC, No. 25‑14660 (D.N.J. complaint filed Aug. 15, 2025) MORE >> |
