An Update Regarding the Transition of Your Retirement Plan
Sent on August 25, 2021
Good Afternoon,
Our team continues to make great progress implementing upgrades to our technology platforms as outlined in our August 3, 2021 communication. These changes will assist in helping grow your retirement plan, as well as elevating the retirement readiness of your participants. We are committed to making this transition as seamless as possible, with minimal disruption for you and your participants.
In this communication, we want to share several important updates regarding the transition.
Updated Blackout Period
We have postponed the start and end dates of the blackout period by approximately one week. This will ensure a smooth and accurate transition of all participant historical data. Participants will still remain invested during the transition and will also be able to view their accounts and balances online before full functionality is returned on September 20th.
