I just got an offer from EY in London but considering based on what the maternity policy is which doesn’t seem to be spelt out in contract or benefits pdf. Does anyone know a) if there’s a minimum employment period to qualify and b) what the enhanced maternity pay is. I’ve read both 16 weeks and 18 weeks.

are you sure there’s even a maintenance fee? many funds just have an expense ratio.
if there are truly separate maintenance fees, yes, roll it over. if you do not have to pay maintenance fees, and are only paying the expense ratio, it’s up to you. do you like how that money is performing compared to your other IRA accounts? if so, keep it. if not, roll it over.
thanks SC1!
Vanguard may also open you up to better investments. A lot of companies have crap options, but with Vanguard I’d assume you’d have a ton of options like stocks, their index funds, etc
Thanks PWC1 - the Vanguard rep told me I would have greater variety of self-directed options with rollover to Vanguard IRA accts ... I’m trying understand what the downsides would be too
Recently consolidated to vanguard. Like the consolidation. Easier to view and manage in one place.
I currently have a half-dozen accts across previous employer plans, so yes I’m trying to consolidate too!
Make sure you keep pre-tax dollars (converted from 401K to IRA) separate from any post tax contributions you make to the IRA. Best to create 2 separate IRAs- one for rollover and one for post tax contributions.
Look into a Roth IRA Conversion Ladder going 401k to T IRA and eventually to Roth IRA when you have no/low earned income
I was suggest to roll it over into a IRA not sure if traditional or Roth would be best for you since I do not understand your financial background but essentially a IRA will give you more flexibility in terms of choosing investments
Make sure when rolling it over you get a rollover incentive bonus from the firm you’re going to to. Google and see who’s advertising it, and then negotiate it with your brokerage of choice. I saw it advertised by Schwab and TD Ameritrade, and negotiated $1200 to roll over $700k to Fidelity (they matched TD Ameritrade)
