Gregory Porter to Speak on Private Equity in 401(k) Panel at ABA Tax Meeting
Bailey Glasser’s ERISA Practice Group Leader, Gregory Y. Porter, will be a featured panelist at the American Bar Association’s 2025 May Tax Meeting, taking place May 8–10 in Washington, D.C.
Greg will speak on the panel titled, “Private Equity Investment Through Your 401(k) Plan: An Idea Whose Time Has Come?”, described as stated:
“As markets continue to change and with the change in administration, private equity funds are again looking to expand their reach into defined contribution plans. This panel will discuss the current state of play and the rewards as well as the risks of offering private equity funds in 401(k) plan lineups.”
Greg has extensive trial and class action experience, having recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for employees and retirees in complex pension, 401(k), and ESOP litigation. Greg currently represents Intel employees who lost hundreds of millions of dollars when Intel saddled its 401(k) plan with expensive and poor performing hedge and private equity funds. He also recently led the Bailey Glasser team representing 14 law professors in an amicus brief in the Supreme Court case Cunningham v. Cornell University, where the Court issued a unanimous decision in favor of employees in a fiduciary mismanagement case.
