There are many pros and cons. The most common
motivations for rolling the money out to an #IRA are control and flexibility. First,
when you roll into an #IRA, you are no longer limited to the choices the #401(k)
plan offers. Second, you may cut costs if the investment options in the #401(k) are
expensive as is common with small plans.

Clearly, there are many forces and issues affecting financial services today. Across Capital Markets and Banking; we have distilled these forces down to four clear macro drivers, based on our observations and customer interactionsNeed for greater insight into financial risks and business performance Unforeseen risks from unknown quarters – Times in the past were simpler, when risk could be identified and measured appropriately since there were a finite number of products and asset classes. However, with the objective of garnering ‘alpha’ for clients, firms have pushed the envelope with asset classes and derivatives that make it very difficult to assess all levels of risk accurately and in a timely manner. Every additional tick of the clock required to calculate credit, together with market risks, limits the business considerably. High regulatory scrutiny and oversight –New regulations are always on the anvil but many still remain ambiguous that firms have to navigate unchartered business issues, while at the same time trying to decipher what the regulatory implications are for their business. Derivatives Reform supports clients in navigating through the challenges of major regulations such as Dodd-Frank, MiFID II and Basel III. (Insurance carriers also want greater risk insight and this is being driven by Solvency II in Europe)Lost customer loyalty – The financial crisis may have brought consumer views of financial services organizations to an all-time low. This may be related to fall out from questionable mortgage lending, government bailouts, or new fees being implemented for basic services (such as debit cards) despite growing profits and bonuses. Whether perceived or real, it doesn’t really matter. The point is that financial institutions are losing trust and loyalty of their customers. It is imperative for banks, and investment banks to rebuild this trust. Net new premium or net new customers are hard to come by. Companies therefore need to service their existing customers to avoid attrition.Cost and margin pressures –It is becoming more expensive to conduct business. This is in part is due to escalating regulatory requirements that add more process, the cost of capital reserves (for example, Basel III requirements include short term trade financing activity – this is causing many banks to rethink their role in the vital international trade business). We also see eroding margins from price pressures, but also an increasing burden of complex legacy technology that is becoming inefficient to operate and expensive to modernize.Historically low interest rates and poor portfolio returns - Due to the economic crisis and historically low interest rates, capital markets firms must adjust portfolios in different ways than as they had done before the economic crisisFocus on profitability and reducing operation costs Consumers demand more complex technology – technology innovation is changing at an ever-increasing pace. Examples of course includethe explosion of consumers and business professionals to stay socially connectedContinued growth in new devices that enable mobilitythe move to the cloud for cost and agility, and. Even breakthroughs in the way we interact with technology is changing, as seen with the Xbox Kinect motion sensing game controller. Technology is an intrinsic part of the business of banking – and the gap between technology capabilities and consumer adoption vs bank system capability is widening.TRANSITION:What are the Opportunities & Challenges these create?What are the new Business Priorities?what are the new Required Capabilities, and what technologies areneeded to enable them?
So how do these macro issues and customer perspectives align to what we see as strategic technology implications and investments? We’ve boiled this down to four major priorities that will be briefly introduced – and then I’ll move onto the Microsoft value proposition:Risk management and business insight : BI/big data solutions to aid business strategy and HPC/risk bursts enabling agile enterprise risk management. The cloud provides a unique opportunity to finally do all the ‘what if’ analysis that quants and risk managers used to always ask IT for. But the real benefit will be for traders inventing strategies, trying to identify patterns in market replay that will allow them to find new ways to be profitable.Customer acquisition and retention: Enhancement of customer service tools and collaboration platforms. Rich in design and ‘accessible from anywhere’, applications are being put in place to provide customers with detailed market analysis leveraging all media and channels. Cost optimization and operational efficiency: Optimize electronic trading, improve speed, monetize technology assets and leverage hybrid models. Like in Formula 1 racing, financial services firms have to ask themselves what component to bet on to maximize the best return on investment. Is it a new network card? Or a new datacenter? Or a new quant app? The road to success will increasingly be linked to IT, which is no longer a limiter but an enabler for business.Mobility and social channels: New trends in the consumerization of technology, as well as social media, provide excellent opportunities to be the first mover and quickly garner a new marketplace, which was hitherto a much longer time to market for any new project and the dependency on sourcing infrastructure, deployment and end user access has greatly reduced with the emergence of Software As A Service as well as devices.
According to The Wall Street Journal, "Credit Suisse survived the credit crisis better than many competitors.” Luchetti, Aaron; Jay Solomon (December 17, 2009), "Credit Suisse May Revamp Asset-Management Unit", The Wall Street Journal, retrieved October 13, 2012Credit Suisse Uses Business Intelligence for Next-Generation Global Risk Management http://www.microsoft.com/casestudies/Microsoft-Silverlight/Credit-Suisse-Asset-Management/Credit-Suisse-Uses-Business-Intelligence-for-Next-Generation-Global-Risk-Management/4000011104To support growth and perform risk analysis and investment guideline monitoring, Credit Suisse Asset Management (CSAM), part of the Credit Suisse group, needed a next-generation data management, reporting, and analysis solution. CSAM built its Strategic Performance, Exposure, Attribution, and Risk (SPEAR) application using Microsoft Business Intelligence technologies and Microsoft ASP.NET, with the Microsoft Silverlight browser plug-in for a rich interactive user experience. After successful deployment in the CSAM United States office—as well as to the Prime Services Risk Management Group of the investment bank—the same product is being rolled out at the Zurich branch of the business. The reusability of the platform resulted in fast time to market and a reduced total cost of ownership across multiple areas of the bank, which is now better positioned to adapt to changing risk monitoring requirements globallyBusiness Connectivity Services (BCS) uses a complimentary client and server-side architecture that allows for Office clients, such as Outlook and Excel, to work directly with external data exposed to SharePoint through external content types.A scorecard shows at a glance whether performance is on or off target for one or more key performance indicators (KPIs). A dashboard is a collection of views that can include scorecards and other reports. Scorecards and dashboard are designed to show current performance information and are typically rendered in a site such as a SharePoint Server 2013 site.
Bank of America case studyhttp://www.microsoft.com/casestudies/Microsoft-Office-SharePoint-Server-2007/Bank-of-America/Global-Financial-Leader-Deploys-Solution-for-Compliance-and-Operational-Advantages/4000002415 Bank of America, one of the world’s leading financial institutions, provides its services through 6,100 retail banking offices and nearly 18,500 ATMs. For a large and complex organization like Bank of America, compliance with the numerous U.S. and international financial regulations is of vital importance. One of the most significant of those regulations is the Basel II Accord, which establishes rigorous requirements designed to ensure that banks hold capital reserves appropriate to the risk to which they are exposed. To comply with the operational risk aspects of Basel II, the bank created a portal solution based on Microsoft® Office SharePoint® Server 2007. Developed and deployed in just four months, the solution has been rapidly adopted by managers and staff, who are using it to comply with Basel II and to better measure and address operational risk throughout the enterprise.Track Compliance Initiatives with Visio Services in SharePoint Server 2013. Visio Services is a service application that allows users to collaborate on and view Visio diagrams. The service also enables data-connected Visio 2013 diagrams to be refreshed and updated from a variety of data sources. Pull real-time compliance information from a variety of sources to keep compliance initiatives in check across the enterprise.

SharePoint provides the framework for a records management system that:Helps protect an organization legally.Demonstrates compliance with regulatory standards.Increases efficiency by promoting the disposition of out-of-date items.Records Center is the hub from which you can submit or find important documents that should be stored for long term archival. Submitted records are automatically placed in the correct library and folder based on the properties you fill out. Records managers can configure the routing table to direct incoming files to specific locations. The site also lets you manage whether records can be deleted or modified after they are added to the repository.Record managers can also specify retention schedules for content types (and libraries/folders) to ensure compliance with corporate and regulatory governance requirements.Instead of moving documents to a specific Records Center, you can also declare documents as a record and will be handled as a record in the site it was created as an in-place record. After the document is declared as a record, it can have policies and restrictions different than when it was a document. The policies are added to either the Content Type or directly on the document library.Documents can be declared as records either manually or automatically.
Animated slide – click to view eDiscovery query exampleElectronic Discovery, or eDiscovery, features allow organizations to identify, hold, search, and export content from Exchange mailboxes, SharePoint sites, and file shares to support case management in addition to preservation and complianceWith advanced search technology (from the FAST acquisition) the new Office unifies the eDiscovery process by letting you retrieve content stored across Exchange, SharePoint, Lync and even file shares. You can search and view content by project, legal matter, or business context. Laser-focused refiners help you get the exact content you are looking for. Key benefits of our unified eDiscovery solution are:First, you can find it all in one place: one single experience for searching and preserving email, documents, site mailboxes, etc.Secondly, find what you need and only what you need: be specific about what you want to search for and preserve, to reduce discovery costsThirdly, find it without user impact: place no burden on the user for preserving and searching for data, do it all in the background.Eliminate the need to buy and manage a separate archiving solution by allowing users to access an email archive from within their Inbox and equipping specialized users with eDiscovery tools.
Sharing documents is easier than ever before. You can provide external partners and vendors secure access to SharePoint sites or documents without violating the data governance and protection policies set by IT. You can enforce sign-in and set permissions at the document or site level to ensure you can work together with anyone more securely.

The heart of the social experience in SharePoint 2013 is the newsfeed – it’s a summary of all your social interactions from your microblogs and community conversations, to the sites, content, and people you follow.The newsfeed gives people the ability to post, to reply to others comments, to like. If you’re following a hashtag, or someone posts a comment on a community of site all of this activity will appear on your newsfeed. The newsfeed can also be filtered to show information targeted directly at you, including @mentions, to help you quickly get involved in the conversation.There are multiple feeds as part of the social experience, your personal newsfeed, a company feed that is used to share information with everyone and individual site feeds. Following in SharePoint 2013 includes not only people, but documents, sites and tags and you can even show trending tags based on social analytics designed to help everyone in the organization keep a close eye on what’s happening across your organization and stay connected from virtually anywhere.We have incorporated all the social networking capabilities that people love in the new SharePoint. Here you can see the SharePoint Newsfeed, which enables you to speak your mind, share ideas and get answers in real time. You get hashtags (#), ‘likes’ and the ability to mention people (@) in a post. You can follow people, document & sites, so you always know what is going on with your colleagues and projects. You can even create an Outlook task, right from your Newsfeed, so you can effectively track an action item. This is what we call social to get things done.Theme: Connect your workplace with integrated social capabilities – communication and collaboration within and across agencies; Knowledge Sharing to Drive Productivity and Efficiencies; Resolve issues fasterOffice 2013 capabilities: social capabilities in SharePoint and Office – like newsfeeds to follow sites, documents and discussions to get answers in real time - follow people, teams, documents and sites to stay on top of the latest happenings. Keep track of what your colleagues are up to through their activity feed. SharePoint even recommends people and documents to follow based on your interests and responsibilities. Ratings and reputation scores enable you to recognize colleagues and develop expert communities.

Apps are secured and isolated from SharePoint AccessibleApps can be accessed from any device with a web browser.The Cloud App Model provides a loosely coupled architecture for building apps in SharePoint 2013. This loosely coupled architecture gives the freedom of choice for developers in the technologies they use to not only host their applications but also the tools they use to write them. These apps leverage industry web standards such as HTML, JavaScript, jQuery, JSON, REST, OData and OAuth to provide apps an integrated user experience, yet architecturally provides for loose coupling with SharePoint 2013. Apps for SharePoint execute “off-server” which allows for the app to scale independently of SharePoint and provides for a more secure SharePoint environment. You have complete control how apps interact with SharePoint. IT has complete control on how users discover, acquire and license apps. IT can specify which apps are white listed for install, or provide a mechanism where users can request an app that requires IT approval to install.Apps can be accessible from any device with a web browser whether it be a PC, Tablet or smart phone.

SharePoint offers a special library app called an Asset Library. An Asset Library is pre-configured to use special features that help you manage rich media assets, such as image, audio, and video files. An Asset Library is a type of document library with additional functionality to support the storage and organization of rich media, such as images, videos, or audio files. The Asset Library template comes with the following features:Thumbnail–centric views By default, the Asset Library uses a Thumbnails view, which displays small thumbnails of the assets in the library. This view makes it easy to quickly browse for images and video files.Overlay callouts In Thumbnails view, the name of the file is shown on a black overlay at the bottom of the thumbnail. When you move your pointer over the thumbnail, this overlay scrolls up, covers the thumbnail, and reveals clickable buttons. One button lets you select the files, and the other opens a detail panel with more options.Podcasting support through RSS You can use the RSS feature of the asset library to set up podcasting for audio or video files that are stored in Asset Library. Site users can subscribe to the RSS feed for the library to receive new content as it is added via podcast. To learn how to add audio or video to a newsfeed post, see Add features to a newsfeed post.Digital asset content types The Asset Library is pre-configured to support content types for image, video, and audio files. These content types include columns that enable you to track metadata that is specific to rich media assets. To learn more about content types, see Introduction to content types and content type publishingAutomatic metadata extraction for image files When you upload image files to an Asset Library, any existing metadata for the file is extracted and promoted to any available corresponding columns in the library. Automatic metadata extraction is supported for the following image file types: BMP, GIF, ICO, JPEG, PNG, and TIFF.
