What is Traditional IRA?

Like a brokerage account, you can invest in stocks, bonds, and funds. However, it's specifically designed for retirement savings.

Why should you open Traditional IRA?

Here are the top benefits of Traditional IRA.

  • Tax Deductions:

    • Depending on your income and whether you or your spouse participate in an employer-sponsored retirement plan, contributions to a Traditional IRA may be tax-deductible.

    • This can lower your current tax bill, leaving you with more disposable income.

  • Tax-Deferred Growth:

    • Your investments within the Traditional IRA grow tax-free.

    • This means you won't pay taxes on the earnings (like dividends and capital gains) until you withdraw the money in retirement.

    • This can lead to substantial long-term savings.

  • Flexibility in Investment Choices:

    • Traditional IRAs offer a wide range of investment options, such as stocks, bonds, mutual funds, and ETFs, allowing you to tailor your portfolio to your risk tolerance and investment goals.
