Here's what you need to know.

On November 15, 2024, your First Citizens Wealth retirement plan account will move to a new recordkeeping platform. We look forward to supporting you as you continue to save for retirement.

Many of the experiences and features you value today will remain the same. For instance:

  • The username and password that you use to log into your account today will still work after your account moves to the new recordkeeping platform.
  • The web experience you’re used to will also be very similar once your account moves to the new recordkeeping platform.

Your account information will transfer to the new recordkeeping platform beginning on November 15, 2024. Your personal data will always be safe and secure. 

On the new recordkeeping platform, all deferral and investment elections must be in whole percentages. If you currently have a fractional percentage or dollar amount for your deferral or investment elections, please log in to your employee website and update your elections to a whole percentage or dollar amount no later than 1:00 p.m. ET, November 12, 2024. Otherwise, elections will be updated on your behalf. Learn more here.

 

Yes. Later in November, as we prepare to securely move your account to the new recordkeeping platform, there will be a short period of time during which you cannot request transactions. A detailed timeline will be available well ahead of your plan's move.
