Certificate of Deposit


A Certificate of Deposit (CD) is a safe, flexible account. The return will be your original deposit, plus interest earned. Interest paid depends on the fixed rate of your deposit and term length. Here are some of the details and it’s easy to get started.

Tax Advantages


Contributions may be tax-deductible depending on your income. And certain accounts, like a Roth IRA, are funded with after-tax dollars so that distributions in retirement may be tax-free.

Traditional IRA


Anyone who earns a salary, wage or commission can open a traditional IRA. Contributions may be fully or partially tax-deductible if certain IRS rules and income limitations are met. The IRS also sets limits on annual contributions.

Roth IRA


Qualifying taxpayers can benefit from tax savings with a Roth IRA. While contributions are not tax deductible, funds can be withdrawn tax-free after an initial five-year holding period if you’re age 59 1/2 or older.

IRA Rollover


When you make a job change, you have the opportunity to “roll” your funds out of your previous employer’s qualified retirement plan into an IRA. This tax-free transfer is an opportunity to simplify your financial life by combining retirement accounts. It also can give you greater control over your investments. Special rules and limitations apply.
