Roth IRAs

Giving people a different option since 1997

Thank the late Sen. William Roth of Delaware, whose name is on the tax relief act that lets you choose this option for retirement savings. It comes with distinct tax advantages, mainly that you're investing after-tax money so you can withdraw earnings and contributions tax-free beginning at age 59 1/2. Think about it - if you plan to retire in a higher tax bracket, might as well pay at the lower rate now.

Investments are made in IRA Certificate Accounts with various terms and rates
You're eligible to contribute if you have income from compensation or you're filing jointly with a spouse who earns income
Not required to take withdrawals at age 72

Contributions can be withdrawn tax-free at any time; earnings can be withdrawn tax-free under special circumstances after your account is at least five years old

Retirement planning is pretty exciting, and we want you to be well-informed. Make sure you talk to your tax professional to understand all the tax implications and details before you open your Roth IRA.
