What do I need to open an account?

To open a Northfield Savings Bank account, you must have a valid U.S. residence, a U.S. Social Security Number or a U.S. Tax Identification Number, and a U.S. Driver’s License, Passport, State Identification Number or Military ID (for military personnel, an APO is acceptable in lieu of a U.S. residence). Additionally, you must live, work, or own a second home in Vermont to qualify for an account.

My financial situation is complicated and I need investment, tax, and legal advice. What kind of help can you give me?

A Northfield Investment Services representative will work with you and your tax and legal advisors to help put together a plan that is appropriate for each situation. They have worked with many attorneys and tax professionals around the region, and are available for meetings with your advisors. 

Northfield Investment Services does not provide tax advice. Investors should consult their tax preparer regarding their individual situation.

 

I have never worked with a professional broker before. How does the process work?

At your first meeting, a Northfield Investment Services representative will provide a complimentary review of your financial situation, your investment goals, your tolerance for investment risk, and your time horizon to meet those goals.  At your second meeting, a personalized plan will be presented for your review. If you approve of the investment plan, your assets will be transferred into the investments that have been selected. You will receive regular investment statements and updates on your account.

I'm not sure I am saving enough for my retirement. What kind of help can I get?

A full review of your current retirement savings, as well as various "what-if" scenarios, is an important part of the financial planning services that are provided to you at no cost. A Northfield Investment Services representative will work with you to create a plan for your investments based on your financial situation, your investment goals, your time horizon, and your tolerance for risk.

I am changing jobs. Can you provide help with my 401(k) rollover?

Absolutely. Changing jobs is an important time to review your 401(k), and you have options for what to do next: leave it where it is, roll it into a new plan, roll it to an IRA, or cash it out. A Northfield Investment Services representative will help you transfer it properly, and make sure you do not lose the tax-deferred status of your retirement funds.
