The Solution

    Old 401(k)? You May Have Options Worth Reviewing.

    When you change jobs or retire, your 401(k) doesn't have to stay behind. Understanding your options is the first step toward a more confident retirement strategy.

    Common Choices for an Old 401(k)

    There is no one-size-fits-all answer. The right choice depends on your goals, timeline, risk tolerance, fees, account rules, and retirement income needs.

    Leave it where it is

    You may be able to leave the money in your former employer's plan. However, you won't be able to make new contributions, and you may have limited investment choices or face administrative fees.

    Move it to a new employer

    If your new employer offers a plan that accepts transfers, you might consolidate your accounts. This keeps things simple, but you are still subject to that specific plan's rules and options.

    Roll it into another account

    You can roll the funds into a traditional IRA or another qualified retirement account. This often provides a broader range of choices and more control over your strategy.

    Explore protected strategies

    For those nearing retirement, rolling over into a principal-protected strategy may help reduce exposure to market loss while still offering growth potential.
