Secure your financial future

It’s never too early to start planning your retirement, and we make it easy with multiple options: A Traditional or Roth IRA as a savings account or a Certificate. We also have an experienced Wealth Management team to help you put together a full retirement plan.

Traditional and Roth IRAs

 

No minimum deposit to open the account
$50 minimum balance to earn dividends (rate is variable)
No monthly service fee
Similar to a basic savings account, except there are restrictions on deposits and withdrawals
Contributions may be made by individual deposits or rolled over from another IRA
