Does Fourth Circuit Decision Signal the Death of ERISA Class Action Suits for DC Plans?
American Retirement Association [ARA] 
Mar. 16, 2026 "An appellate court has rejected certification of a class seeking to sue plan fiduciaries who held BlackRock LifePath target-date funds....

This opinion ... directly challenges the procedural foundation used in many of the large fiduciary-breach cases over the past 15-20 years." [Trauernicht v. Genworth Fin. Inc., No. 24-1880 (4th Cir. Mar. 10, 2026)] MORE >> |
