The Summary tab displays Fidelity personal investing accounts (such as brokerage or mutual fund accounts), Workplace Savings accounts (like a 401k or 403b account), and Fidelity accounts you don't own but are authorized to view. On the Summary tab you'll find a link to the Fidelity Charitable web site so you can view information about a giving account.
We may need to gather additional information, confirmation and agreement from you before your account is active, or accessible, online. Currently, there are two types of accounts which commonly need to be activated:
Rollover IRA or Roth IRAs
If your Rollover IRA or Roth IRA was established for you by the plan sponsor of your former employer's retirement savings plan, you must activate your account before you can transact.
Eligible assets rolled over to your Rollover IRA or Roth IRA were deposited in the default Core position of your new Fidelity IRA. Once your IRA is activated, you can invest your assets in mutual funds or other securities. The Fidelity Brokerage Retirement Account Customer Agreement, located in the Agree to Terms section of the online activation process, has more information.
A Rollover IRA is a type of Individual Retirement Account (IRA) specifically designated to hold assets from employer-sponsored retirement plans like 401(k)s, 403(b)s, or defined benefit pension plans. With a Rollover IRA, your retirement savings remain invested tax-deferred. The rollover of your retirement assets from your former employer's plan to this Rollover IRA is not a taxable event.
A Roth IRA is a type of Individual Retirement Account (IRA) that can provide federally tax-free growth and withdrawals provided certain conditions are met. Eligible assets from a Roth account (i.e., Roth 401(k)) in your employer-sponsored workplace plan can only be rolled into a Roth IRA. The rollover of your retirement assets from your former employer's plan to this Roth IRA is not a taxable event. Although not applicable to rollovers, note that there are income and eligibility requirements to make contributions to a Roth IRA.
