Your Fidelity account, a reflection of your financial planning and investment strategies, is a testament to your financial diligence and foresight. From your first investment to your growing retirement fund, these financial milestones constitute a significant part of your legacy. But have you ever wondered what happens to your Fidelity account when you die?
Financial institutions, like Fidelity, play a crucial role in our lives, guiding our financial growth and security. When it comes to posthumous account management, Fidelity offers two main options: Account Closure and Transfer of Ownership.
Account Closure
Upon your death, your Fidelity account can be closed, and the remaining balance distributed to your heirs as per your will or the state law of intestacy if a will is absent.
Transfer of Ownership
Alternatively, you can choose to transfer the ownership of your account to a designated heir. They will then have full control over the account and its funds.
These options give you control over your financial legacy, but they require planning and communication with your loved ones. That's where Snug comes in.
