Why hold a brokerage account in a self directed IRA?
• Ease of management. Holding a brokerage account in your self directed IRA allows you to view your entire retirement portfolio at once, and to receive consolidated statements. • Speed of transfer. With the trading account inside the self directed IRA, funds can be moved quickly and easily between traded (or public) investments and non-traded investments such as real estate or private placements. • Cost Effectiveness. Because the need to transfer funds between institutions is eliminated, certain fees may be avoided.
