Look ahead to retirement with confidence: open an IRA by April 15

An IRA is a smart way to save for retirement. It can help minimize taxes and maximize your savings. The sooner you start, the better. Because of its tax advantages, it's important to have an IRA as part of your retirement plan.
  • Tax-deferred growth - Your IRA earnings are not taxed each year, providing more growth potential
  • Accumulate more - Your IRA will grow faster over time since earnings are compounded

You can contribute to an IRA to supplement your retirement savings even if you have a 401(k). We can also help you rollover your retirement accounts into an IRA at Affinity. Our Financial Advisors will give you unbiased guidance and create a plan that's based solely on what's right for you.1

Don't wait. Open an IRA by April 15 to maximize your 2009 tax advantage and get started with your 2010 contributions.

Call 888.734.1300, stop by any branch, or contact an Affinity Financial Advisor now to get started.

IRA Rollovers

If you are changing jobs, retiring or leaving a job, it may be a great time to consolidate your investments into a rollover IRA. There are many options for a rollover, and with the Rollover Review, you get a personal Financial Advisor to manage the process and evaluate your investment position. Your advisor will:
  • help you understand your investment options
  • assist you in the transfer of stock
  • discuss tax ramifications
  • review your estate planning options

IRA Products

Whether you're looking to open a new IRA, rollover or consolidate an existing IRA, Affinity can help you achieve your goals.

Beginning January 1, 2010, the modified adjusted gross income restriction of $100,000 or less has been eliminated for conversion of a Traditional IRA, SIMPLE IRA and retirement plan assets into a Roth IRA. This means that all taxpayers can now take advantage of converting to a Roth IRA. Contact your Affinity Financial Advisor for more information.
