Independent retirement services firm Newport Group Inc. said Tuesday it agreed to purchase PNC Bank, National Association's Vested Interest defined contribution plan recordkeeping business.

Newport said the terms of the transaction weren't disclosed. PNC Bank is part of PNC Financial Services Group Inc. (PNC).

The business--which currently provides recordkeeping and administration services to plans with about $17 billion of assets under administration--will operate as part of Newport Group, and employees will join Newport, the company said.
