If I am only investing into VTI each month this year am I better of using the Vanguard brokerage account instead of Fidelity or does it matter? Have my employer 401k with Vanguard.

Doesn’t matter for ETFs as FM1 said. Just want to add if you use mutual funds, don’t use Vanguard at Fidelity and vice versa.

It doesn't matter. I just keep my Roth IRA and brokerage account at the same place (Fidelity). My 401k will move around as I change companies so I can't control that, although it happens to be at Fidelity this time.

I like fidelity better than vanguard from UX perspective

Why only VTI?

I know what it is, just curious why. Surely it’s safe, but if you put some eggs into some other more specific ETFs, I’m sure there’s greater return potential and diversity. Is is weighted after all so even though it grabs everything I think VTI is heavier in tech notably Apple/Microsoft/Google

Just use vanguard for ease.

Hi sharks 🦈🦈 I recently switched from PwC India to IBM & hence need to transfer my PF to IBM.

Can anyone tell me who is to transfer the PF when someone is switching from PwC India?

At first the PwC India finance team told me that it needs to be approved by RPFC(Government).

Then when I said that in EPFO portal, it shows- 'Pending at previous employer', then they said fine we will approve it & they approved.

Can anyone tell me the actual process who had to get this transfer done ??
