Erisa Misrepresentation And Nondisclosure Claims: Securities Litigation Under The Guise Of Erisa?, Clovis Trevino Bravo
Erisa Misrepresentation And Nondisclosure Claims: Securities Litigation Under The Guise Of Erisa?, Clovis Trevino Bravo
Georgetown Law Student Series
In the wake of recent corporate scandals and dramatic market downturns, many employees whose retirement savings plans were heavily invested in the stock of their employer have seen their account balances substantially depleted. To recover for their losses, plan participants have filed lawsuits under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) alleging that plan fiduciaries made misrepresentations or failed to disclose material information about the suitability of investing in the company stock. These suits are generally derivative or companion cases to securities class actions based on the same allegations of misrepresentations or nondisclosures. Even though there is a significant overlap …
Understanding And Problematizing Contractual Tort Subrogation, Brendan S. Maher, Radha A. Pathak
Understanding And Problematizing Contractual Tort Subrogation, Brendan S. Maher, Radha A. Pathak
Faculty Scholarship
The modern incarnation of tort subrogation allows an insurer to force its insured to turn over the litigation proceeds independently obtained by the insured against a third-party tortfeasor, even if the insured has not been made whole by such litigation. This Article demonstrates that such a result is the product of a subrogation-as-contract paradigm that has taken hold in the federal system, most notably by the United States Supreme Court in Sereboff v. Mid-Atlantic Services, 547 U.S. 356 (2006). More importantly, the Article illustrates the conceptual and historical roots of subrogation to demonstrate the extent to which subrogation-as-contract is divorced …

Pension Systems And Inflation-Indexed Bonds: A Study Of Strengthening Retirement Income Security Through Comparative Analysis Of The United States And Korean Systems, Joon Suk Bae
Maurer Theses and Dissertations
As most of the countries in the world approach an aging society, security for the aged emerges as one of the most important goals for a government to pursue. There are two primary areas related to retirement income security: pension systems and inflation-indexed bonds. Pension systems fall into three categories: public, corporate, and individual pensions. Public pensions, such as Social Security in the United States, are showing their limitation in securing retirement income because it is no longer easy to maintain their solvency as the ratio of workers-to-retirees goes down. Because of this limitation of public pensions, private pensions are …

Evidence And Ideology In Assessing The Effectiveness Of Financial Literacy Education, Lauren E. Willis
Evidence And Ideology In Assessing The Effectiveness Of Financial Literacy Education, Lauren E. Willis
All Faculty Scholarship
Financial literacy education has long been promoted as key to consumer financial well-being. Yet the claim has never had more than negligible statistically significant empirical support. This review (1) sets forth the model of financial literacy education underlying public support for these programs today, (2) identifies pervasive and serious limitations in existing empirical research used by policymakers as evidence of the effectiveness of this education, and (3) recommends a number of alternative public policies suggested by the existing research.
Against Financial Literacy Education, Lauren E. Willis
Against Financial Literacy Education, Lauren E. Willis
All Faculty Scholarship
The dominant model of regulation in the United States for consumer credit, insurance, and investment products is disclosure and unfettered choice. As these products have become increasingly complex, consumers’ inability to understand them has become increasingly apparent, and the consequences of this inability more dire. In response, policymakers have embraced financial literacy education as a necessary corollary to the disclosure model of regulation. This education is widely believed to turn consumers into “responsible” and “empowered” market players, motivated and competent to make financial decisions that increase their own welfare. The vision is of educated consumers handling their own credit, insurance, …

On February 12, 2008, the nation's first Baby Boomer, Kathleen Casey-Kirschling, was the first of her generation to receive a Social Security retirement benefit. Born one second after midnight on January 1, 1946, Ms. Casey-Kirschling was born just eleven years after the Social Security system was originally enacted, nine years after the first Social Security payroll taxes were collected, and six years after the system first began to pay monthly retirement benefits.
"As the nation's first Baby Boomer, Ms. Casey-Kirschling is leading what is often referred to as America's silver tsunami. Over the next two decades, nearly eighty million Americans …

Reviewing Teresa Ghilarducci & Christian E. Weller, Eds. Employee Pensions: Policies, Problems & Possibilities (LERA 2007)
A little over thirty years ago Congress enacted the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA),1 a comprehensive reform of the existing system of pension regulation.2 Solidly into its fourth decade, ERISA has been the object of much commentary as the various federal courts have struggled to infuse its complicated and sometimes imprecise pieces with coherent meaning. 3 Some have suggested that ERISA's primary goal of reducing the risk to employees of employer default has largely been achieved.4 Others believe that almost …

The New Retiree Health Vebas, Kathryn L. Moore
Law Faculty Scholarly Articles
Granted tax exempt status since 1928, Voluntary Employees' Beneficiary Associations (VEBAs) have received considerable attention since the fall of 2007 when General Motors, Ford, and Chrysler reached separate landmark agreements with the United Auto Workers union pursuant to which the companies agreed to contribute billions of dollars to VEBAs in exchange for transferring their retiree health care liabilities to the VEBAs. Specifically, General Motors agreed to contribute $31.9 billion while Ford agreed to contribute $13.6 billion, and Chrysler agreed to contribute $11 billion. Sometimes referred to as "defeasance" VEBAs, these "new," "stand-alone" retiree health VEBAs, differ significantly from traditional VEBAs …
