Saving For Retirement?

Individual investors have choices when it comes to saving for retirement

In a traditional retirement account at work or at a typical bank or brokerage your IRA investment choices are limited to a typical mix of publicly traded investments such as stocks, bonds mutual funds and ETFs.

However, the IRS also allows you to invest retirement funds in non-publicly traded opportunities. Alternative investments, typically with a long-term focus can be a good match for “long term” retirement funds.

Consider the power of an IRA that let’s you:

  • Diversify your portfolio and
  • Seek growth using non-publicly traded investments

A self-directed IRA allows you to invest in these assets

Real Estate IRA

Vacant land, farmland, residential, commercial or vacation property

Notes: Secured and Unsecured IRA

Precious Metals IRA

Certain gold, silver, platinum and palladium coins and bullion

Private Equity IRA

Companies not publicly traded such as startups, early stage or growing companies that are raising capital
