Business Retirement Plans

Our Retirement Plan Services team can help you start or improve your business’s retirement plan. We work with small and large companies, schools, non-profits, and professional practices to develop client-specific retirement plans.

Traditional IRAs

Your contributions may be tax-deductible. You must have earned reportable income and be under age 73. Contribution limits are $6,500 for individuals under 50 and $7,500 for individuals 50 or older. 

Rollovers into a Traditional IRA 
Individuals receiving funds from an employer retirement plan can keep those funds tax-sheltered with a “direct rollover” into a traditional IRA. We can walk you through the process at any of our branch offices. 

Distributions 
Mandatory distributions must begin by April 1 of the year following the year an individual reaches age 73. Distributions made prior to age 59 ½ may be subject to a 10% early withdrawal tax penalty unless certain exceptions apply. Consult your tax advisor. 

Roth IRAs 

Contributions into a Roth are non-deductible. However, all earnings grow tax-free! Enjoy the benefit of fully tax-free withdrawals after a five-year holding period for certain distribution reasons. Anyone with earned reportable income under certain limits can contribute to a Roth IRA and there are no age 73 minimum distribution requirements. Contribution limits are $6,500 for individuals under 50 and $7,500 for individuals 50 and over. 

Roth IRA Conversions 
Traditional IRA holders can take advantage of tax-free withdrawals at retirement by “converting” their IRA to a Roth. Recent tax laws have eliminated the $100,000 income restriction for Roth conversions. All dollars converted are reported as taxable income in the year the conversion takes place.

Simplified Employee Pension (SEP) IRAs 

Designed to give the self-employed and small business owner an affordable retirement plan for their employees. Contributions are made by the employer into a SEP IRA for their employees. SEPs are an attractive choice for many small business owners. 

SEP contributions can be made up until the business owner’s tax filing deadline (including extensions). Contribution limits increase each year, so always consult your benefits provider before making SEP contributions.
