SALT LAKE CITY, Dec. 13, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CapitalROCK, the makers of RightBRIDGE Systems, has worked with the Wagner Law Group for legal opinions on DOL related matters for several years. With the recent announcement of the proposed Retirement Security Rule, CapitalROCK requested that the Wagner Law Group review the proposed Retirement Security Rule and provide an initial assessment of the readiness of the RightBRIDGE application for the new requirements of the Retirement Security Rule.
Stephen P. Wilkes, Chief Legal Officer of the Wagner Law Group, performed the review and CapitalROCK is pleased to share a portion of his white paper here:
“… we have reviewed the proposed Retirement Security Rule with an eye towards any changes that might impact the issues addressed in our opinion letters of July 13, 2021 and March 18, 2022. Of course, the proposed Retirement Security Rule and the proposed changes to PTE 2020-02 are just that – proposed – and their requirements may change in their final form. As discussed below, we believe that the RightBRIDGE approach is wholly consistent with the Proposed PTE in its current form and will continue to be an important asset for those who rely on RightBRIDGE as they seek to comply with PTE 2020-02 as it exists today and under proposed Retirement Security Rule in the future.”
This initial review of the proposed Retirement Security Rule, and the readiness of the RightBRIDGE system, is the latest in a series of projects in which CapitalROCK has engaged the Wagner Law Group. The Wagner Law Group is considered to be the nation’s preeminent ERISA and Employee Benefits law firm and CapitalROCK is pleased to share the relevant legal opinions, memos, and whitepapers with its customers and prospective customers.
