ING Settled In Retirement Plan Disclosure Case





Spitzer is really good, and what's behind the curtains in Wall Street is really dark.

From CNN Money:

Dutch financial services giant ING Group will pay $33 million to settle lawsuits filed by New York and New Hampshire that alleged it accepted fees from companies to promote certain funds in retirement plans and that it did not fully disclose these payments.

The office of New York Attorney General Eliot Spitzer on Tuesday announced ING agreed to pay $30 million to some 50,000 New York state teachers who invested in ING retirement plans.

ING also promised to disclose in layman's English all the fees charged to investors and provide information about payments it receives for including funds in its other retirement plans, Spitzer's office said.
