Summary

The bill adds new rules for Michigan public employee retirement systems, requiring investment fiduciaries to complete at least eight hours of professional training every two years and to publish a comprehensive annual report. It also caps how much a system can spend on board members' training and travel and sets strict disclosure and conflict‑of‑interest standards. The aim is to improve transparency and ensure fiduciaries are properly educated.
