Choosing Investments Doesn't Have to Be Hard
Understand Target Date Funds
Do you need to change investments?
Your savings are in a money market fund, but it's smart to diversify your investments. That can help manage risks and may give you a better chance of reaching your goal. A convenient way to diversify is with a target-date fund.

Diversification does not assure a profit nor does it protect against loss of principal.

New Account FAQs
Why was my money moved?
Employers can transfer money out of their retirement plans when they don't receive instructions from former employees about what to do with the money. That account is moved into either a Rollover IRA or a Roth IRA, depending on what kind of contributions you made to the plan.
Is it easy to transfer other accounts here?
It's so easy. Take the first step by calling a Rollover Specialist at 1-800-345-2021, and they'll help with the rest—from assisting you with the paperwork to monitoring the rollover until it's complete.
What investment options do I have?
You have over 80 investment choices here at American Century Investments, including already-diversified portfolios that are specifically designed to give people a better chance of having enough in retirement. Find out why these diversified portfolios may be good for retirement.

Why would I want to consolidate retirement accounts?
Having all your retirement money in one place can give you a better view of how your money is working and see if you’re on track. It can also be easier to manage.
What if I just want to take my money?
It's tempting to want to spend the money on something you want or need right now. But your future is worth keeping that money working for retirement. Plus, if you aren't 59½, there are early withdrawal penalties and taxes to consider.
What do I get with free guidance?
Once you activate your account, use our Retirement Planner tool to understand the kind of portfolio that may be right for you. Or, if you need help now choosing a new fund, request a one-on-one consultation with an experienced Investment Consultant. Both are free.
*Adding to your rollover IRA may make it ineligible to move to another employer-sponsored retirement plan in the future, depending on the plan's contribution rules. IRAs have annual contributions limits; the recent rollover money is NOT included in those limits.
