For All Members
An Individual Retirement Account – or IRA – allows anyone with earned income to save for retirement. They’re a great option to start saving for your future.
- TRADITIONAL IRA: Contributions can grow tax-deferred, which means you’ll pay taxes when you make withdrawals in retirement2
- ROTH IRA: You invest using after-tax dollars now, so you won’t pay taxes on your withdrawals in retirement.
- SIMPLIFIED EMPLOYEE PENSION (SEP) IRA: Gives self-employed Members and small business owners an easy, low-cost plan to save for their own and their employees’ retirement
- SAVINGS INCENTIVE MATCH PLAN FOR EMPLOYEES (SIMPLE) IRA: A simple way for small businesses to offer a retirement plan to their employees with an employer match
- IRA SHARE CERTIFICATE: Offers a safer way to save for retirement because unlike an investment IRA they’re federally insured by NCUA up to $250,000

The representative showed me two different options, explained the details to me and I got to choose the right one for me. He was so personable and was truly in it to advise and help me, and he made the process so easy."
