Title: Definition of "Fiduciary"  
Abstract: This rulemaking would amend the regulatory definition of the term "fiduciary" set forth at 29 CFR 2510.3-21 (c) to more broadly define as employee benefit plan fiduciaries persons who render investment advice to plans for a fee within the meaning of section 3(21) of the Employee Retirement Security Act (ERISA). The amendment would take into account current practices of investment advisers and the expectations of plan officials and participants who receive investment advice.
