Effective December 2, 2017, the State Street Target Retirement Funds were added to the CIRS 401(k) Savings Plan’s investment line-up.

Each State Street Target Retirement fund is a well-diversified, professionally managed, automatic investment fund option designed to prepare its investors for retirement in a specified year in the future. Each fund has a date in its name—the fund’s target date—that is the approximate retirement year when withdrawals begin.  For more information on TDFs, click here.
