What to Do With Your Federal Retirement Savings Plans
As a government employee, you’ve likely been saving for your retirement in one or more retirement savings programs. Now the question is in front of you about what to do with the money saved in those plans, including how to minimize any tax implications and how to manage those savings going forward. Whether you’re participating in the Federal Employees’ Retirement System (FERS), the Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS) or the federal Thrift Savings Plan (TSP), there are many factors to consider. Our wealth managers can provide recommendations based on your current financial situation, your years to retirement and what your goals are to help keep you on track toward the retirement you’ve been planning.
