Open or create a custodian account
(see section below for options)
Many individuals are funding a self-directed IRA with gold, silver, and platinum bullion bars and coins. Diversifying your investment portfolio with precious metals is a smart way to balance and improve the overall performance of your retirement portfolio. Paper denominated assets like those found in traditional and Roth IRAs and 401Ks can lose value when government fiscal and monetary policy are not sound. Adding a percentage of gold, silver or platinum in a new precious metal IRA can compensate for paper losses.
Regardless of which legal framework you prefer to use as shown in the section below, the process of getting physical precious metals into your 401k or IRA is simple:
Establish a self directed 401k or IRA at an existing self directed custodian. Fund it and buy precious metals. The metal must be stored in an IRA approved depository and there are yearly fees associated with management and storage of your account. Once funded, fill out the buy direction paperwork with any of the custodians naming CA Bullion as the dealer. Then contact us and we will coordinate with the custodian in selling the metals into your account and sending to the depository.
CA Bullion has partnered with one of the best national custodians of self directed 401k / IRAs. Please use the link and contact information below to get more information to see if this option is right for you.
