JP Morgan. Although ERISA has long applied fiduciary roles and responsibilities to health and welfare benefit plans, regulatory guidance tailored specifically to these plan designs has remained largely stagnant. This has resulted in a huge uptick in federal court cases related to fiduciary duties and the ongoing conversations around what it means to be a good fiduciary.  January’s compliance webinar will cover Fiduciary Compliance 101, providing a high-level overview of fiduciary compliance, fiduciary duties, and best practices to implement at the start of 2026, and every calendar year going forward. Join us for our monthly webinar as we unpack fiduciary compliance for health and benefit plans and explain why it’s an essential discussion to start the year. Let us clarify the mess, so you can spend your time doing what you do best. ### Who is Lumelight?  Lumelight is a boutique ACA and benefits compliance consultancy helping people navigate the complex world of employee benefits compliance through deep expertise and superb client service. ### Want to attend?
