title: Who is a fiduciary?--implications of Supreme Court rulings.
abstract: The determination of who is a fiduciary under ERISA is of extreme importance in assessing potential ERISA liability. The analysis used in making this determination once seemed clear, but that may no longer be the case in the wake of recent Supreme Court decisions that redefine the line between fiduciary and nonfiduciary conduct.
