Fred Reish will present new insight
on trends and regulations impacting retirement plans

Transamerica Retirement Solutions announced today that it will host a webinar for financial advisors, consultants, and third party administrators that will provide insight on trends and government regulations impacting retirement plans.

Mr. Reish is a nationally known speaker on trends and legislation of retirement plans, and has spoken at the annual conferences of the American Bar Association, the American Society of Pension Professionals and Actuaries, the Western Pension and Benefits Conference, the Enrollment Actuaries Conference, the International Foundation of Employee Benefit Plans, and the National Institute of Pension Administrators.

The webinar is the latest in Transamerica’s Retirement Industry Speakers Bureau series for financial professionals, where guest speakers are invited to offer unique insight on issues facing retirement plan sponsors, as well as their advisors, consultants and service providers. The webinar will be approximately 90 minutes in length.

“Retirement plan sponsors continue to look for ways to maximize the retirement outcomes of their employees, and many are seeking the expert advice on best practices in achieving these long-term goals. Financial advisors and third-party administrators are at the front lines on helping plan sponsors reach their goals, and this is why Transamerica provides resources like this webinar,” said Deb Rubin, senior vice president of TPA channel development and distribution for Transamerica Retirement Solutions. “We are excited to have Fred Reish as our guest speaker.
