IRA Accounts

Individual Retirement Accounts

The "First Foundation IRA" is a tax-advantaged account that- when you make consistent periodic contributions and invest them with FDIC insurance-can be a cornerstone for building your desired retirement income. The "First Foundation IRA" offers you Roth and Traditional account options, providing you the opportunity to flexibly meet your retirement planning goals.

  • The Roth IRA allows you to contribute money that has already been taxed, so your money can grow tax-free. As long as certain conditions are met, you can then enjoy tax-free withdrawals in retirement.
  • The Traditional IRA allows you make contributions with money you may be able to deduct on your tax return and earn tax-deferred earnings on the contributions until you withdraw them in retirement. The Traditional IRA allows you to deposit funds received from employer-sponsored plans when you cease to be a participant in that plan, provided the transfer meets certain requirements. When these requirements are met, these transfers will also continue to earn tax-deferred earnings until you withdraw them in retirement.

First Foundation IRAs provide the tax benefits that generally allow your retirement savings to grow-or compound-more quickly than in a taxable savings account.
