IRA Services Announces Major Year-End Fee Discount
Investors are increasingly seeking these specialty assets for their higher returns over the traditional bank and brokerage assets.
IRA Services retirement accounts allow investors to invest in a wide variety of assets including the growing number of these direct investment and specialty assets. Many traditional retirement account providers do not permit these types of assets or if they allow them it is with much higher fees.
IRA Services has been handling accounts with these direct purchase and alternative assets for many years and has developed systems and personal that have been able to keep the costs low and pass that advantage on to the investor.Since fees can have a significant impact on an asset's return, the lower the fees, the better the return for the investor.
Many providers charge fees based on the account value, while fees in an IRA Services account are based on assets held, which is a major savings over those accounts which base fees on value.
IRA Services gives these investors a cost-effective way to add specialty assets to their retirement portfolio.
IRA Services works with individual investors through the investor's financial representative and directly with financial product sponsors to provide an account that meets today's current investment needs at a price that maximizes investor returns.IRA Services has been providing self-directed retirement accounts for the direct investment and specialty asset investor for over twenty-five years.
