Select Icon

Select

Get a recommended list of mutual funds, specific to your unique risk tolerance and investment objectives.

Available later this year.

Go beyond the tailored guidance in the Select option and have your investments completely managed by an SEC-RIA for an even higher level of personalization.

You may have been impacted by an investment program change in 2023, which was outside HSA Bank’s control. HSA Bank had a long-standing relationship with TD Ameritrade to provide investment options to accountholders. Then, TD Ameritrade, Inc. was acquired by Charles Schwab. In September 2023, Schwab moved all TD Ameritrade accounts to Schwab, including those of HSA Bank accountholders. 

The launch of HSA Invest is the first change initiated by HSA Bank, which happened to be in the same 12 months as the TD Ameritrade to Schwab transition. 
 

You may be required to keep a minimum in your HSA cash balance to invest. Details are available on the Member Website under Manage Investments.

 

The annual fees are 0.10% for Choice, 0.25% for Select and 0.35% for Managed. The fees are assessed on a quarterly basis and deducted from the investment balance. The fee is calculated on a percentage basis on the fair market value (FMV) on the last day of each quarter.

 

For every $1,000 you invest you’d pay $0.25 quarterly for Choice, $0.62 quarterly for Select and $0.87 quarterly for Managed.

 

HSA Invest annual fees are waived for any quarter when your average HSA cash balance for that quarter is $7,500 or more.

 

If your HSA is through your employer, log in to your account for specific fees.

 

HSA Invest annual fees will be waived through 2024.
