Traditional IRAs Roth IRAs

Overview

Traditional IRAs

The traditional IRA is an individual retirement account that allows you to defer taxes on your contribution earnings until they are withdrawn. Certain contributions are also tax-deductible in the tax year for which you make them. 

Roth IRAs

The Roth IRA allows only nondeductible contributions and features tax-free withdrawals for certain distribution reasons after a five-year holding period. If you expect to be in a higher tax bracket when you retire, you may benefit more from a Roth IRA, since contributions are nondeductible and taxed in the year they are earned.

What is an IRA?

IRAs are Individual Retirement Accounts.

When Social Security and pension plans are not enough to maintain your standard of living at retirement, an Individual Retirement Account (IRA) can be an excellent investment. Both the Roth and traditional IRA offer a number of benefits, depending on your current financial situation.

  • Traditional IRAs allow you to defer taxes on your contributions' earnings until they are withdrawn.
  • Roth IRAs allow only nondeductible contributions and features tax-free withdrawals for certain distribution reasons after a five-year holding period.
