BI’s Article search uses Boolean search capabilities. If you are not familiar with these principles, here are some quick tips.

To search specifically for more than one word, put the search term in quotation marks. For example, “workers compensation”. This will limit your search to that combination of words.

To search for a combination of terms, use quotations and the & symbol. For example, “hurricane” & “loss”.

403(b) savings plan rules require documentation

Reprints

WASHINGTON--All 403(b) savings plans, including those funded solely through salary deferral, will be required to provide participants with plan documents under final rules issued Monday jointly by the Internal Revenue Service and the Treasury Department.

Currently, the plan document requirement applies only to 403(b) arrangements, which are the nonprofit world's equivalent to 401(k) plans, to which employers contribute.

The rules would take effect Jan. 1, 2009.
