Individual Retirement Plans

Principal Bank offers two types of Individual Retirement Plans--Traditional and Roth. Whichever type you choose, you can rest easy knowing your funds are invested in secure, tax-deferred savings opportunities (both plans are protected by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to $250,000 aggregate total per depositor). To learn which IRA is right for you, review the information below:

Traditional IRA - Personal retirement savings plan available to anyone who receives taxable compensation during the year. Contributions may or may not be deductible in the tax year made. Earnings are untaxed until withdrawn.

Roth IRA - Offers tax-exempt rather than tax-deferred savings. Contributions are never deductible. Earnings are untaxed as long as Roth IRA has been open for at least five tax-years.

IRA Forms - Need to make a contribution, distribution or change of beneficiary to your existing IRA? Principal Bank offers forms for this purpose. Just print, complete, sign and send.
