401k Plans and Investment Choices
We advise on retirement plans for individuals and also for business entities that shop on behalf of employees. The 401k, at its simplest, is a profit-sharing vehicle that lets employees contribute a portion of their income to a fund that invests the money. Under certain plans, the employer matches these contributions. We help clients review where a given account invests the money and whether it includes advisory services.
Simple IRA
An individual retirement account (IRA) is an account opened with a bank or other institution whereby the increases in value are either tax-free (Roth) or tax-deferred (traditional). With a Roth product, contribution monies are taxed when earned, and a traditional IRA sees distribution income taxed while contributions are left alone. Either way, your savings can compound at an accelerated rate. A rollover IRA is opened with funds from another retirement account.
SEP IRA
A simplified employee pension (SEP) IRA is set up by the business on behalf of an associate whereby the employer can make contributions to the IRA when they so choose. Each contribution is tax-deductible for the employer. Tax advantages to businesses with fewer employees include a credit, among other benefits, to offset the cost of setting up the SEP in the first place. A SEP may be desirable depending on retirement goals.
