For those of you who do not subscribe to BNA, BNA published as an "Insight" an article I wrote on QLAC and Rev Rul 2012-3 (yes, my author agreement permits me to post it here, with attribution). Look for Paul Hamburger's upcoming related article, delving into a number of technical and policy issues they raise, as well as discussing the releases on transferring to a DB plan. Link here: First Steps to Modernizing DC Annuitization: QLACs and Revenue Ruling 2012-3.
I will be speaking on a panel addressing this topic with Mark Iwry, Jeff Turner and Wally Lloyd at the ABA Section of Taxation's Employee Benefits Committee general session on May 12 in DC.
