SELF-DIRECTED IRA SERVICE PROVIDERS 2015 www.RetirementLoft.com

     

Welcome!    

Whether  you  are  just  discovering  the  advantages  of  self-­‐directing  your  retirement  accounts  or  seasoned  pro   who  has  already  taken  control  of  their  retirement  plan,  this  year’s  Guide  to  Self-­‐Directed  IRA  Service  Providers   will  become  a  valuable  research  tool.     Since  the  IRA  was  first  established  in  1974  you’ve  been  allowed  to  own  a  wide  assortment  of  investment   assets,  far  beyond  those  offered  by  Wall  Street  firms  or  your  local  bank.  So  why  is  it  that  less  that  3%  of  all  IRA   accounts  today  own  assets  other  than  the  typical  stocks,  bonds  and  mutual  funds?  Since  there  has  never  been   an  incentive  for  bankers  or  stockbrokers  to  recommend  anything  they  don’t  earn  a  fee  on,  the  vast  majority  of   retirement  plans  have  been  limited  to  investments  offered  by  these  advisors.       Over  the  past  20  years,  the  self-­‐directed  IRA  market  has  grown  dramatically  from  only  a  handful  of  custodians   and  administrators  specializing  in  alternative  assets  to  over  50  today.       IRA  investors  are  turning  to  this  once  mostly  overlooked  area  to  broaden  their  investment  options  and  to  take   advantage  of  the  ability  to  invest  in  the  asset  classes  where  they  have  existing  knowledge  or  expertise.       This  is  due  to  several  factors:  1)  the  continued  volatility  of  the  stock  market;  2)  growing  investor  mistrust  of  the   stock  market;  3)  concerns  regarding  the  economy;  4)  historically  low  yields  now  paid  on  traditional  fixed   income  investments.     These  combined  with  the  fact  that  IRAs  held  $6.5  trillion  in  assets  at  the  end  of  the  2014  explains  why  there   are  some  many  new  SD-­‐IRA  custodians  each  year.  The  Retirement  Industry  Trust  Association  estimates  there  is   approximately  $200  billion  in  IRA  funds  currently  invested  in  alternative  investments  including:  real  estate,   precious  metals,  mortgages,  agriculture,  oil  &  gas,  alternative  energy  and  venture  capital  investments.       One  of  the  first  things  to  understand  when  researching  who  to  open  your  SD-­‐IRA  account  with,  is  the   difference  between  the  three  types  of  service  providers:  Custodians,     Administrators  and  Facilitators.      

Custodians    

A  custodian  is  a  company  who  is  either  approved  and  regulated  directly  by  the  IRS,  or  affiliated  with  or  owned   by  a  bank  or  trust  company  and  subject  to  regulation  from  their  state  Banking  Commissioner  and/or  the   Comptroller  of  Currency  and  FDIC.  Custodians  handle  the  formation,  paperwork  and  administrative  services  for   retirement  accounts.  Self-­‐directed  custodians  are  similar  to  traditional  custodians  in  that  they  are  institutions   that  hold  or  "custody"  your  retirement  funds.  The  main  difference  from  traditional  IRA  custodians  is  that  self-­‐ directed  custodians  are  passive;  therefore  they  never  offer  their  own  investments  or  give  account  owners   investment  advice.  Account  owners  are  given  the  freedom  to  select  their  own  investments  including  non-­‐ traditional  assets.    

Administrators    

An  administrator  is  a  company  that  handles  the  formation,  maintenance  paperwork  required  for  your   retirement  account.  Some  administrators  actually  handle  your  money  and  accept  deposits  as  well.  In  this   regard,  an  administrator  actually  acts  as  a  middle  man  between  the  account  owner  and  the  bank  where  funds   are  deposited.  Administrators  generate  account  statements;  keep  records  of  the  assets  held  in  the  account  and   review  transaction  documents  for  compliance  with  current  IRS  regulations.      

  Facilitators    

Over  the  last  10  years  IRA  Facilitators  have  become  an  alternative  to  both  traditional  and  nontraditional   custodial  accounts.  The  main  idea  behind  an  IRA  facilitator  is  to  provide  clients  with  an  IRA  investment  vehicle   that  allows  for  the  purchase  of  both  nontraditional  and  traditional  assets  at  a  potentially  reduced  cost.  An  IRA   facilitator  assists  clients  in  establishing  a  Special  Purpose  IRA  LLC  vehicle  commonly  called  a  “Check  Book  IRA”.   While  this  structure  still  requires  the  use  of  a  custodian  or  administrator,  the  account  owner  manages  the   investment  assets  which  are  owned  by  the  LLC,  which  in  turn  is  funded  by  the  account  owners  IRA  funds.  The   Special  Purpose  IRA  LLC  is  often  the  best  account  choice  for  those  requiring  either  immediate  access  to  funds   when  purchasing  assets  at  auction  or  those  assets  with  frequent  expenses  or  income  deposits  e.g.  apartment   complexes.       Regardless  of  whether  you  use  a  Custodian,  an  Administrator  or  a  Facilitator  to  help  establish  your  SD-­‐IRA,  it’s   important  to  know  that  the  industry  as  become  very  competitive  and  although  the  fees  you’ll  pay  vary  little   between  service  providers,  the  level  of  service  you  can  expect  to  receive  can  be  vastly  different.  Selecting  the   largest  service  provider  may  give  you  a  sense  of  greater  safety  however,  it  doesn’t  guarantee  the  best   customer  service  which  in  this  industry  is  typically  provided  by  the  smaller  firms  you’ll  find  in  your  research.       The  fees  reflected  in  this  report  were  obtained  from  what  we  believe  to  be  each  company’s  most  recent  Fee   Disclosure.     There  can  be  additional  fees  associated  with  self-­‐directing  your  IRA  including,  but  not  limited  to  transaction   fees,  special  handling  fees,  bank  wire  fees,  overnight  fees,  notary  fees,  research  fees,  termination  fees,  and   more.  Please  review  each  company’s  Fee  Disclosure  carefully  before  establishing  a  self-­‐directed  IRA  account.
