SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Setting Every Community Up for 

Retirement Enhancement Act of 2019 

(the SECURE Act) was designed to 

improve retirement coverage as well as 

the ability of individuals to manage 

important retirement-related risks. 

Specifically, the Secure Act requires 

Section 101 of the SECURE Act requires 

a ‘‘pooled plan provider’’ to register 

with the Labor Department and the 

Treasury Department before beginning 

operations as a pooled plan provider. 

Specifically, Section 101 of the SECURE 

Act amends section 3(2) of the 

Employee Retirement Income Security 

Act (ERISA) to eliminate the 

commonality of interest requirement for 

establishing certain individual account 

plans, or ‘‘pooled employer plans,’’ that 

meet specific requirements. Among 

these requirements, plans must 

designate a ‘‘pooled plan provider’’ to 

serve as a named fiduciary and as the 

plan administrator. Further, section 101 

of the SECURE Act requires pooled plan 

providers to register with the 

Department of Labor (the Department) 

and the Department of the Treasury 

(Treasury) before beginning operations. 

The statute expressly provides a 

separate authorization for the 

Department to require additional 

information. For additional substantive 

information about this ICR, see the 

related notice published in the Federal 

Register on February 8, 2023 (88 FR
