On July 18, 2024, IRS issued final regulations to update the required minimum distribution (RMD) rules for changes made by the Setting Every Community Up for Retirement Enhancement Act (SECURE Act) and certain changes made by the SECURE 2.0 Act.

The final regulations reflect changes made by the SECURE Act and the SECURE 2.0 Act impacting retirement plan participants, IRA owners and their beneficiaries. At the same time, Treasury and IRS issued proposed regulations, addressing additional RMD issues under the SECURE 2.0 Act. Understanding the new-mortem IRA distribution regime is critical for everyone advising clients with large retirement accounts and especially those who provide estate administration services.

  • Rules for minor children as beneficiaries
  • IRAS payable to trust
  • Post-mortem division of retirement assets including funding sub-trusts & in-kind distributions
