What we offer
We offer a solution to improve your future returns and flexibility.
We offer cross border expertise access to a cost-effective, relatively robust turn-key solution to help you rollover your 401k to an IRA.
Many cross border professionals working in the US have a 401k, when they leave to return home they forget to roll it into an IRA. That could be a big mistake!
Most cross border professionals think the only options available to them are to let the 401k sit unattended until it’s time to evaluate their retirement options.
Advantages
Better Investment choice
Your 401k is likely limited to a small sample of the investment options that are available. However, with an IRA, most types of investment are available to you, including not just mutual funds, but also individual stocks and exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Having more options can help you develop a better long-term strategy for your retirement savings.
Lower Costs
Depending on your 401k plan, there may be lower-cost fund options in an Individual Retirement Account (IRA).
Fewer Restrictions
Understanding your 401k is not easy – each company has a lot of flexibility in how they set up the plan. IRAs are standardized by the IRS.
Flexibility For Withdrawals
Rolling your money into an IRA will enable you to manage your withdrawals and taxes you’ll pay on them. In addition IRAs could offer more flexibility in determining which assets to liquidate vs a 401k which typically take an equal amount out of each of your investments.
More Control
If you find that a fund in your 401k is not performing well, you may not be able to find another investment option to switch to as easily as you can with an IRA.
Wealth Transfer Advantages
Upon your death, there’s a good chance that your 401k will be paid in one lump sum to your beneficiary. An IRA generally allows you to name multiple beneficiaries—or even a trust as a beneficiary.
Our process will help you determine if the IRA platform is the right option for you.
We will be glad to talk to you about your options.
