Opening an IRA or rolling over an old 401(k) or 403(b) plan to an IRA?

A financial advisor can help provide you with the information you need to decide if a traditional or Roth IRA best suits your financial goals.

If you are changing jobs or retiring, it may make sense to consider a rollover of funds from your employer-based retirement plan. An Ameriprise advisor can help you understand the benefits and risks of rollovers.

Could you rollover assets to an IRA while still employed?

In some retirement plans, you may be able to rollover assets from your workplace 401(k) into a personal IRA while you’re still employed. Ask your advisor to help you explore the pros and cons of an in-service IRA rollover strategy before you make a decision.

IRA contribution limits and eligibility

A financial advisor can keep you updated on IRA contribution limits, eligibility and tax deductibility. These may change year-to-year and vary based on income level and tax status.

Retirement plans for self-employed individuals and businesses

A range of retirement plans are available to address the retirement needs of you, your business and your employees.

Plans can offer an array of investment options: mutual funds, self-directed brokerage accounts, annuities, certificates or professionally managed accounts; investments vary by plan.

Retirement plans for employers of nonprofit organizations

Nonprofit organizations seeking retirement savings plans can select from the many available 403(b) plan investment options from Ameriprise Financial.
