Foley is proud to present our new Web conference series, the Employee Benefits Broadcast. Each quarter, Foley’s Employee Benefits attorneys will share all of the employee benefits news and analysis you need in an engaging and informative hour-long Web conference.
Our first broadcast was on Tuesday, October 21, 2008. This session’s featured segments included:
- Headline News: Michael H. Woolever discussed this quarter’s most pressing topic, Code Section 409A, and the actions needed by year-end to meet the looming compliance deadline. Michael also shared Code Section 409A strategies and considerations for the coming year.
- Mark Your Calendar: In this segment, Sarah B. Krause provided a reminder of other important year-end deadlines.
- In the Spotlight: Guest speaker Timothy L. Voigtman from our Tax Practice explained the withholding rules for nonqualified deferred compensation.
- Cram Session: To provide a quick overview of new guidance that could impact your plans, Belinda S. Morgan focused on the recent Internal Revenue Service (IRS) correction procedures for qualified retirement plan errors.
- Fiduciary Fundamentals: Lloyd J. Dickinson discussed the U.S. Department of Labor’s (DOL) recent interest in gifts to plan fiduciaries.
- Vexing Verdicts: In this segment on surprising court decisions, Leigh C. Riley discussed a recent case about “scrivener’s error.”
The Employee Benefits Broadcast provides participants with needed information in the most efficient manner possible — only a telephone line and Internet access are required to participate — allowing employee benefits professionals to stay up-to-date with timely information from anywhere in the nation.

The next wave of innovation is increasingly being built across borders, particularly between the United States and Latin America. Venture capital investors, strategic acquirers, and technology companies no longer view Latin America solely as an emerging market, but instead as a growing source of sophisticated founders, scalable technology companies, engineering talent, and sector-specific innovation.
