401(k)

The 401(k) plan lets you take control of your retirement by investing in fund options of your choice.

You can decide how your money should be invested given your individual goals, risk tolerance, and timeline. The amount you receive from your 401(k) account in retirement is based on how much you save, plus any accumulated earnings from your investments.
