Federal HB2988 amends ERISA to mandate fiduciary duties, restrict non-pecuniary factors in investment decisions, and enhance disclosure requirements.

Federal HB2988, known as the Protecting Prudent Investment of Retirement Savings Act, amends the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) to enhance fiduciary duties and investment considerations. It mandates that fiduciaries manage shareholder rights prudently, focusing solely on economic interests of participants and beneficiaries. The bill restricts fiduciaries from considering non-pecuniary factors in investment decisions unless they document their insufficiency. It also requires fiduciaries to adopt proxy voting policies and monitor delegated voting activities.
