Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs)

• Save for retirement with tax advantages¹
• Competitive dividends above standard savings rates
• Traditional and Roth IRA options
• No setup fees
• No monthly or annual maintenance fees
• Annual contribution limits apply (see current contribution limits; $6,000 as of 2020)¹
• Additional $1,000 "catch-up" contribution allowed for ages 50+
• Funds can be used to purchase CDs within IRA
