Ethics in Benefits Roundtable

Case Study

An accountant, attorney, actuary and third party administrator walk into a roundtable. This isn't just the beginning to a great joke, but the foundation for a program on professional ethics in the benefits industry.

Presenters Mary Dickinson, Stephen A. White and Richard Birmingham will revisit last year's discussion on the ethical rules applicable to their professions and how those rules create special issues in the benefits industry. Topics will include fee issues; conflicts of interests; and duties to clients/employers. The presenters will use a case study to identify ethical issues in common scenarios and as a basis for a discussion of the role of employers in monitoring service providers. This program provides benefits industry specific ethics education for professionals and also provides an overview for employers of the ethics requirements applicable to their service providers.
