We're excited to share that Reliant is making an important change to better support your financial future. Starting on July 6th, with a transition period through July 23rd, This summer our 403(b)(9) Retirement Plan will transition be transitioning from Principal Financial Group to a new provider, GuideStone. GuideStone has been a long-time trusted provider of Reliant's Domestic health insurance, specializing in serving faith-based churches and non-profits.   Building on our existing foundation of working together in service to serving Reliant's employees, we're now expanding our GuideStone relationship to include our Reliant Retirement Plan. . The transition will take place starting on July 6th, with a transition period through July 23rd.

The attached letter (included below) explains this change in full details. 

...

  • The record-keeping/administrative company that services our Reliant 403(b)(9) Plan will be moving from Principal Financial Group to GuideStone.
  • Between July 6th-July 23rd, no changes or withdrawals can be made with Reliant Retirement accounts. 
  • After July 23rd, participants will access your retirement account from GuideStone's website.
  • Solomon will be "under construction" for a little while as we refresh pages and navigation instructions based on the GuideStone website's layout. Our hope is to have our 403(b)(9) Retirement Section fully updated by early fall. 

...

  • The vast majority of investments offered within our 403(b)(9) Plan are not changing.
    • There is one fixed-interest rate investment that some employees have selected within their Principal retirement accounts that will have a delayed transfer to GuideStone (these investments will automatically transfer in April 2026 to GuideStone). This delay will ensure the investment's full interest rate is paid out (further details on that investment are provided in the attached letter). Affected participants will receive special communication about this portion of their retirement account in the coming weeks. 
  • All other investments and balances will transfer seamlessly from Principal to GuideStone between July 6th and July 23rd.
  • Reliant will still be using the same default investments (Principal target-date fundsTarget Date Funds) for our investments with GuideStone.
  • Plan participants will also still have the opportunity to select their investments from a diverse list of investments and providers. (GuideStone investments will be offered as options within the investment "mix",  but participants will NOT be required to use those investments.)
