We encourage you to take an active role in the Inova Health System 403(b) Plan and choose investment options that best suit your goals, time horizon, and risk tolerance. If you did not select specific investment options in the Plan, your contributions will be invested in the BlackRock LifePath® Index Fund Class K Shares with the target retirement date closest to the year you might retire, based on your age at the initial enrollment and assuming a retirement age of 65, at the direction of Inova.
If no date of birth or an invalid date of birth is on file at Fidelity your contributions may be invested in the BlackRock LifePath® Index Retirement Fund Class K Shares. More information about the BlackRock LifePath® Index Fund Class K Shares can be found online.
Target Date Funds are an asset mix of stocks, bonds and other investments that automatically becomes more conservative as the fund approaches its target retirement date and beyond. Principal invested is not guaranteed.
