Retirement Plans
The Northeastern retirement program offers a Basic Retirement Plan and a Supplemental Retirement Plan to help faculty and staff build retirement savings for a secure financial future. Contributions to both plans are made using pre-tax dollars. As a result, while saving for their financial future, employees are also saving money on taxes today.
Both plans offer a diverse selection of investment options through Fidelity Investments and TIAA-CREF.
-
Northeastern offers a Core Line-up of Funds (pdf) from Fidelity and TIAA-CREF. This line-up includes 16 TIAA-CREF Funds and 19 Fidelity funds to ensure that faculty and staff have a diversified group of funds representing appropriate asset classes.

In addition, Northeastern offers all Fidelity Investments and TIAA-CREF fund offerings to expand the choices available for participants who want to choose from a larger selection of investments and who are comfortable managing their own portfolio and understand how to research, evaluate and monitor a variety of investments with different risk and return characteristics.
Employees can invest all of their contributions in one investment company or they can split their investment between TIAA-CREF and Fidelity Investments in multiples of 25 percent.
