A new job presents an opportunity for your career, personal and financial growth. It is important to take advantage of any company benefits, including health and life insurance, and any retirement plans. In addition, if you have assets from a previous employer’s plan, you’ll want to consider all of your options to keep the plan, combine it, or roll it over into an IRA where you may have more control over the investment choices and cost. Our advisors can help you get organized to make the right decision.

Before deciding whether to retain assets in an employer plan or roll over to an IRA an investor should consider various factors including, but not limited to, investment options, fees and expenses, services, withdrawal penalties, protection from creditors and legal judgments, required minimum distributions, possession of employer stock and reduction/elimination of guaranteed benefits from the pension plan.
